Millionaires Mocha Affogato
A quick affogato: a thick, warm Millionaires Mocha syrup poured over a scoop of vanilla ice cream, finished with caramel.

An affogato is the simplest grown up dessert there is: something hot and Coffee-ish poured over cold vanilla ice cream. Here a Millionaires Mocha sachet does the job of the espresso. Whisk it into a thick syrup with just a splash of hot water, pour it over a scoop of good vanilla, and the warm coffee caramel chocolate melts into the cold cream as you eat.

Serves one.
You'll need
- 1 Costa Millionaires Mocha sachet (23g)
- 60ml freshly drawn water, brought to a rolling boil then left for 1 minute to drop to about 90C
- 60g scoop of full fat vanilla bean ice cream
- 1 teaspoon of caramel sauce, for the drizzle
- 3 whole roasted coffee beans, gently crushed, for the rim
- 1 piece of dark chocolate covered honeycomb (about 10g), for the saucer
- 1 chilled coupe glass
- 1 long dessert spoon
- 1 small heatproof mug
- 1 small balloon whisk
Method
- Chill a coupe or small bowl in the freezer, and take the ice cream out a couple of minutes early to soften slightly.
- Empty the sachet into a mug and whisk it with 60ml of hot water (around 90C) into a thick, glossy syrup.
- Put a scoop of vanilla ice cream in the chilled coupe.
- Pour the warm syrup straight over the scoop so it starts to melt the cream.
- Finish with a zigzag of caramel and a scatter of crushed coffee beans, with a piece of chocolate honeycomb on the side if you fancy some crunch.
- Eat straight away, saving the pool of melted cream and syrup at the bottom for last.
