Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup vanilla gelato or premium vanilla ice cream
  • 2 fl oz hot espresso or strongly brewed coffee
  • 1 tsp shaved dark chocolate or crushed hazelnuts

Instructions:

  1. Place your glass or bowl in the freezer for 5–10 minutes before assembling to prevent the ice cream from melting too quickly.
  2. Using an ice cream scoop, place two generous spheres of vanilla gelato into the chilled glass, pressing them down slightly for a stable base.
  3. Brew your espresso fresh and slowly pour the hot liquid directly over the peak of the ice cream.
  4. Garnish with shaved dark chocolate or crushed hazelnuts and serve immediately.
