Affogato with Dolci di Latte Caramel Sauce

Affogato, meaning “drowned” in Italian, is an Italian dessert, or afternoon treat, that pairs a shot of espresso with vanilla gelato (or ice cream). So simple as is, but made extra delicious and rich with a generous spoonful of Bella Cucina Dolci di Latte Caramel Sauce. This is definitely one recipe and ritual I'd show up for anytime, anywhere. 

SHOPPING LIST: 

2 small scoops of vanilla ice cream or gelato 

2 tablespoons of Bella Cucina Dolci di Latte Caramel Sauce

2 shots of freshly brewed espresso (or strong hot coffee if you don’t have an espresso machine)

PREPARATION: 

Place the gelato or ice cream scoops into a cappuccino cup or bowl.  Top ice cream with a generous spoonful of the Dolci di Latte Caramel Sauce. 

Brew a fresh, hot shot of espresso or very strong coffee. Pour the espresso over the gelato just before serving.

Buon appetito!
