Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 ml strong brewed coffee
- 10 grams gelatin powder
- 50 grams granulated sugar
- 50 ml hot water
- 100 ml whipped cream (optional, for garnish)
- 10 grams chocolate shavings (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Prepare 500ml of strong brewed coffee using your preferred method (such as a French press, drip coffee maker, or espresso machine). Allow it to cool slightly.
In a small bowl, add 10 grams of gelatin powder and 50ml of hot water. Stir well until the gelatin is fully dissolved. Set aside.
In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the brewed coffee and 50 grams of granulated sugar. Stir until the sugar dissolves completely. Do not let it boil.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and add the dissolved gelatin mixture to the coffee. Stir thoroughly to ensure it is evenly combined.
Pour the coffee mixture into individual molds, cups, or a small baking dish, depending on your preferred presentation.
Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature, then cover it with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until fully set.
Once the jello is firm, run a knife around the edges of the molds to loosen the jello, then gently release it onto a serving plate. If you used a baking dish, cut the jello into cubes or slices.
Optional: Top the coffee jello with whipped cream and chocolate shavings before serving for added flair and flavor.
