Affogato!

This is the perfect little sweet treat pick me up; ice cream drowned in espresso coffee and topped with toasted, crushed hazelnuts. Add a shot of liqueur if you fancy. Bellissimo!

Makes 4

½ cup hazelnuts, toasted and roughly chopped

1 cup very strong espresso coffee

4 big scoops good quality ice cream

4 tablespoons amaretto, Kahlúa or other liqueur (optional)
 Scoop vanilla ice cream into small, pre-chilled glasses or cups.
 Pour over ¼ cup hot espresso over the top and top with hazelnuts. Add a shot of liqueur (optional) and serve immediately.

Nici’s note: For kids, use decaf coffee or hot chocolate and leave out the liqueur.
