Best 8 Affogate Al Caffe Recipes

AFFOGATE AL CAFFE

Steps:

• Put two balls of ice cream in each of the four cups.
• Make the coffees and then pour them over the ice cream.
• Eat immediately, served with biscotti or another type of light cookie on the side.

AFFOGATO AL CAFFè

Steps:

• In a 3-quart saucepan bring the milk to a boil over medium-high heat. Remove from heat and add the espresso.
• In a mixing bowl, beat the yolks until pale yellow. Gradually add the sugar and beat until light yellow ribbons form when the beaters are lifted. Stir in half of the hot milk, then stir in the remaining milk. Cook over low heat without boiling until the mixture coats the back of a spoon thickly and sets slightly, about 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the vanilla and chill for 1/2 hour.
• Whip 1 1/2 cups of the cream to stiff peaks and fold into the custard mixture. Transfer to an ice cream machine and freeze according to manufacturer's instructions. (The semifreddo can be made up to 2 weeks in advance).
• Whip the remaining 1/2 cup cream to soft peaks. Place 1 scoop of semifreddo in each of eight tall glasses. Pour 1 cup of cooled coffee over each scoop, dollop with whipped cream, and dust with cocoa.

GELATO AFFOGATO AL CAFFè

Steps:

• Put the ice cream in 4 bowls and take them to the table.
• Pour over each of them a portion of the still-hot coffee and serve.

AFFOGATO

Steps:

• Make the espresso first so it can sit while you scoop the gelato. If you don't have a moka pot or an espresso machine, run to the nearest coffee shop.
• Add the very cold gelato to a small shallow bowl or glass that's been chilled in the freezer until frosty and cold to the touch.
• Slowly pour the hot espresso in a thin stream directly over the gelato, draping the entire surface of the scoop with an even layer of coffee. You can add a splash of amaretto here if you'd like (the almond flavor would be welcome), but the best affogato is a simple affogato. Just be sure to start eating it before the gelato completely melts: In each bite, you want solid spoonfuls of the gelato thinly draped in coffee.

AFFOGATO

Steps:

• Several hours in advance, lay ice cream on a freezer-proof tray and put the tray back in the freezer.
• To serve, put balls of ice cream into 6 small glasses or bowls, and pour a shot of hot espresso coffee over each. Serve straight away, stirring the vanilla ice cream into the hot coffee so that it melts a little.
