Ingredients
- 2 scoops Vanilla ice cream
- 120 ml Freshly brewed espresso
- 100 ml Whipped cream
- 1 tsp Powdered sugar
- 1 tbsp Chocolate shavings
- 1 piece Wafer cookie
Instructions
Brew 120 ml of fresh espresso and allow it to cool slightly to room temperature for about 5 minutes. Alternatively, chill it in the refrigerator for 2–3 minutes.
Take a tall glass (approximately 300 ml capacity) and add 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream into the bottom of the glass.
Slowly pour the cooled espresso over the ice cream to create a layered effect.
In a separate bowl, whip the cream until soft peaks form. Optionally, sweeten the whipped cream with 1 tsp of powdered sugar for added flavor.
Spoon or pipe the whipped cream on top of the espresso and ice cream in the glass, creating a generous, fluffy layer.
Garnish the whipped cream with 1 tbsp of chocolate shavings for a touch of elegance and taste.
Finish by placing a wafer cookie on the whipped cream or resting it against the side of the glass as a decorative touch.
Serve immediately with a spoon and a straw to enjoy this decadent Austrian iced coffee!
