Ingredients
INGREDIENTS
- 2 cups dark chocolate ice cream
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup water
- 2 shots of hot espresso
- Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, combine raspberries, sugar, and water over medium heat. Stir gently until the raspberries break down and the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Scoop the dark chocolate ice cream into serving bowls or glasses, filling each about halfway.
- Drizzle the warm raspberry sauce over the chocolate ice cream, allowing it to cascade down the sides.
- Pour a shot of hot espresso over the top of each serving, letting it mix with the ice cream and sauce.
- Garnish with fresh mint leaves, if desired, and serve immediately.
Notes
Tip: For a vegan version, substitute the chocolate ice cream with a dairy-free alternative and use maple syrup instead of sugar for the raspberry sauce.
For an extra touch, consider garnishing your affogato with fresh raspberries or a sprinkle of cocoa powder. You can also substitute the dark chocolate ice cream with white chocolate for a different flavor experience.
To keep the raspberry sauce fresh and vibrant, store it separately in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. Reheat before serving for the best flavor!
