Time 6h35m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons instant coffee (I use decaf)
1 teaspoon coffee extract
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pint plus 1 tablespoon heavy cream
One 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
3/4 cup jarred hot fudge
2 tablespoons chopped chocolate-covered espresso beans

Steps:

  • Line a loaf pan (9-by-5-inch works best) with plastic wrap, letting the edges hang over and allowing enough extra plastic to wrap the semifreddo.
  • In a large bowl, combine the instant coffee, coffee extract, vanilla and 1 pint of the heavy cream. Use an electric mixer to whip until medium to firm peaks form. Use a spatula to gently fold in the condensed milk. Transfer half of the mixture to the prepared loaf pan and freeze until just beginning to set, about 20 minutes.
  • Microwave 1/2 cup of the hot fudge with the remaining 1 tablespoon heavy cream in a microwave-safe bowl for 20 to 25 seconds, just to loosen it slightly. Spoon it lengthwise down the center of the pan, from end to end.
  • Transfer the remaining cream mixture to the loaf pan on top of the fudge. Use a butter knife to make swirls going through the mixture. (This will move the fudge throughout the mixture.) Wrap with plastic wrap and place in the freezer for 6 hours.
  • Before serving, let stand at room temperature for 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile heat the remaining 1/4 cup fudge. Unwrap the plastic, invert onto a serving plate and remove the plastic entirely. Drizzle with the hot fudge and sprinkle with the chopped espresso beans. Slice and serve immediately.

This semifreddo is a great make-ahead dessert. I made it a day ahead of time and it was still delicious.

I added a layer of chopped nuts to the semifreddo and it was a great addition. The nuts added a nice crunch to the dessert.

I made this semifreddo with decaf coffee and it was still delicious. It's a great dessert for people who want to enjoy the flavor of coffee without the caffeine.

This semifreddo was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend reducing the amount of sugar in the recipe by half.

I'm not a huge fan of coffee, but I really enjoyed this semifreddo. The chocolate flavor was strong enough to balance out the coffee flavor. The texture was also perfect - smooth and creamy.
