Affogato with nutella gelato and espresso

We wish every day was National Coffee day, so we could enjoy this treat — Affogato!

Affogato is an indulgent, super fun way to get your coffee kick.  And it’s a great “quick dessert” when you have unexpected guests.

Affogato with Nutella gelato, chopped Hazelnuts and grated cocoa

  • 2 scoops of gelato
  • 1 shot of espresso
  • chopped hazelnuts
  • bar of dark chocolate for grating
  • Scoop gelato into serving glass, slowing pour the espresso around the sides of the ice cream, top with chopped hazelnuts and grate chocolate over the top.   I topped mine with a little bit of cinnamon just for fun :)

I thank the man/woman who discovered the incredible, edible egg.  It has brought so much joy to our lives! The most versatile food, hands down!

A compilation of all our meals featuring eggs!
