Later this week I am posting a recipe for affogato – an incredibly easy ice cream and coffee dessert that adults love. This hot chocolate sauce is a perfect alternative to serve to the kids, and any adults who don’t like coffee for that matter. It’s quick and easy to make and I think you’ll love it. Feel free to make it ahead and serve it cold if that works better for you and if you want to spice things up a little then a touch of cinnamon makes a nice addition.
As a heads up, all you’ll need for the affogato is the ability to make some espresso or good strong coffee and some really good quality vanilla ice cream. Oh and a little of your favourite tipple if you wish.
This is a great chocolate sauce. It’s quick and easy to make, uses only a couple of ingredients and never lasts long in my house.
