We’ve all heard of coffee. And we’ve all had and loved ice cream. But have you heard of an affogato? Now that is exactly what can take your cup of coffee or scoop of ice cream to another level. Affogato actually means ‘drowning’ in Italian and that’s where this recipe must have gotten its name because an affogato is ice cream drowned in coffee! Yup, you read that right, affogato is both a coffee and a dessert in itself. It is usually a scoop of vanilla ice cream with a shot of espresso. Let’s find out more about today’s affogato recipe:Â
Caramel AffogatoÂ
A caramel affogato takes the ordinary one to a new height. We just love the thick, rich texture of caramel sauce and the smooth texture of an affogato makes it the perfect dish for experimentation.Â
Let’s get into the recipe:Â
IngredientsÂ
To create a caramel affogato, you will need the following ingredients:Â
- Roastea Super Power CoffeeÂ
- Vanilla gelato or ice creamÂ
- Caramel sauceÂ
- Whipped cream (optional)Â
- Chocolate shavings (optional)Â
StepsÂ
