Dark Roast Coffee Affogato

teas.co.uk · 5 min · Serves 1

You'll need

• 2 heaped teaspoons of Costa Intense Dark Roast Coffee
• 50ml just boiled water, cooled for a minute
• 2 scoops of good vanilla ice cream
• 1 small glass or bowl, chilled
• Grated dark chocolate, to finish (optional)

Method

1. Chill the glass or bowl, then scoop the two scoops of vanilla ice cream into it.
2. Spoon the coffee granules into a small jug or cup.
3. Pour the just boiled water over the granules and stir for ten seconds to make a strong, concentrated shot.
4. Pour the hot coffee slowly over the ice cream so it starts to melt at the edges.
5. Grate a little dark chocolate over the top if you like, and serve at once with a small spoon.
6. Double the coffee granules and halve the water for espresso strength; a weak pour over ice cream tastes watery, not intense.
