How do you make it? I said it was easy, and even the non-cooks can make this dessert!

  1. Scoop a serving of vanilla ice-cream into a bowl
  2. Pour a shot of hot espresso over the ice-cream
  3. Optional extras include pour over a measure of your favourite liqueur and/or crumbling over some Amaretti biscuits for a nice crunch.
  4. Eat immediately!

Affogato is Italian for drowned and you literally drown freezing cold ice-cream with steaming hot espresso….yummmmmmm
