How to make an Afogato

Afogato is one of my favourite desserts. I love how simple it is. It combines 2 of my favourite foods, ice cream and coffee! 

What is an Afogato?


An Afogato is an italian dessert that is simply hot espresso poured over ice cream or gelato as the italians would say.


When I make afogato, I tend to make the coffee using 1 of 3 methods. Drip filter pour over coffee, cafetiere or stovetop. For the ice cream, use a good quality vanilla ice cream or dairy ice cream.


Its really simple. Make your coffee using real ground coffee. Scoop your ice cream into a mug, cup, glass or bowl. Pour your coffee over the ice cream and serve. So simple but so delicious.
