Affogato

Affogato

Affogato is an easy coffee-based dessert that anyone can make in a short amount of time. In this recipe, we take it up a notch. Aside from the traditional rich vanilla ice cream and espresso, we drizzle a bit of coffee liqueur to intensify the coffee aroma and add a hint of alcohol for a more concentrated flavor. To top it off, we sprinkle some shaved chocolate, adding a wonderful texture to this classic dessert.
