Instrucciones

1. Prepare two heat-resistant glasses or cups, ensuring they are clean and dry. This prevents the ice cream from melting too quickly and ensures an appealing presentation.
2. Carefully place two scoops of high-quality vanilla ice cream into each of the prepared glasses. Ensure the ice cream is well-chilled for optimal consistency.
3. Prepare two cups of fresh, hot espresso. Ensure a good crema for the best aroma and appearance. Ideally, the espresso should be brewed just before serving.
4. Immediately pour the hot espresso over the vanilla ice cream in the glasses. The combination of hot and cold is crucial for the traditional Affogato experience.
5. If desired, you can now add 15ml of Amaretto or coffee liqueur per serving to give the Affogato an extra flavor dimension. This enhances the Italian character of the dessert.
6. Generously sprinkle the Affogato with chocolate sprinkles and a pinch of cocoa powder. This creates an appealing look and a slight bitter note that pairs well with the coffee.
7. Serve the Affogato immediately with the Amarettini biscuits for dipping. Enjoy it before the ice cream completely melts to best experience the interplay of cold and hot.
