Ingredients

  • 1 large scoop vanilla ice cream
  • 2 ounces (about 2 shots) freshly brewed espresso

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Add ice cream. Place the ice cream in a shorter glass or dessert bowl.
  2. Add espresso. Pour the hot espresso over the ice cream and dig in with a spoon immediately! The ice cream will melt and swirl with the espresso.

Notes

  • If you don't have an espresso machine, don't worry! You can also use a Moka espresso maker or AeroPress to brew espresso. Instant espresso powder or strongly brewed coffee can work well as a substitute.
  • If you watch the video above, I'm using a double shot of espresso on top of m ice cream. My favorite!
