- 2 scoops good quality vanilla gelato or ice cream
- 1 shot espresso (~ 1 ounce)
- 1 splash liqueur (such as Amaretto, Frangelico or Nocello) (optional)
- A few hours prior to serving (or the night before), scoop gelato or ice cream into a glass or ceramic dish or drinking glass. Cover in plastic wrap and place back in the freezer. (You can skip this step if you don’t have time.)
- Just before serving, using your desired brewing method, brew 1 shot of espresso.
- Pour the hot brewed espresso over the gelato or ice cream.
- Add a splash of liqueur (anything that pairs well with coffee) (optional).
- Garnish with a chocolate covered espresso bean or chocolate shavings.
- Serve immediately.
