Affogato Mocha

By stancec44

Affogato is a typically Italian way to enjoy ice cream—it's literally "drowned" in espresso or another liquid topping. (Lemon sorbetto splashed with grappa is a refreshing summer example.)

Ingredients

• 1 pint chocolate ice cream
• 8 tablespoons finely chopped bittersweet (not unsweetened) or semisweet chocolate
• 8 tablespoons hot freshly brewed espresso coffee
• 8 tablespoons dark rum

Preparation

Step 1

Divide ice cream among 4 dessert bowls or coffee cups. Spoon 2 tablespoons each of chocolate, espresso, and rum over ice cream and serve immediately.
