Affogato

A scoop of something cold, a shot of hot espresso poured over. Two ingredients, ninety seconds, and it ends a dinner party better than anything you could bake.

5 min active 5 min total serves 4 vegetarian

Ingredients

  • 4 shot Strong brewed coffee or espresso
  • 1 ½ cups Plain 2% Greek yogurt, frozen, or vanilla ice cream
  • 2 tbsp Pure maple syrup
  • 1 oz Dark chocolate (70%), shaved
  • 3 tbsp Hazelnuts, toasted and chopped

Method

  1. For the frozen yogurt version: stir the maple into the yogurt, freeze it in a shallow container for 3 hours, and scrape it into scoops. Or use good vanilla ice cream and skip this.
  2. Chill four small glasses. A cold glass buys you thirty seconds before it becomes a milkshake.
  3. Put a scoop in each glass. Pull the espresso and pour it over at the table, in front of people.
  4. Shaved chocolate and hazelnuts on top. Eat it immediately — the whole appeal is the moment when it is half melted.

Notes

✨ The restaurant touch
Pour it at the table. There is a small theater to affogato and it costs nothing.
🧒 For the kids
Hot chocolate instead of espresso works and is a real dessert in its own right.
🥡 Leftovers
There is no such thing.
