Affogato Recipe (Espresso Ice Cream)
The Affogato is a classic Italian dessert consisting of sweet vanilla ice cream topped, or "drowned" with hot espresso coffee. A sweet mid-afternoon treat or after dinner pick-me-up, this espresso ice cream is just what you need to survive the hot summer months (thank you, Italy).You may substitute freshly brewed strong coffee if you do not have access to an espresso maker.
