No. 0472 Italian Members recipe

Espresso Affogato in a Coffee Cup

The simplest Italian dessert and one of the most satisfying: a scoop of cold vanilla gelato drowned in a freshly pulled shot of hot espresso. The crema swirls into the melting cream, creating a bittersweet, velvety sip-and-spoon treat. It takes two minutes and doubles as an after-dinner coffee.
