Chocolate Hazelnut Affogato prepared according to the Wolf Ember recipe

Chocolate Hazelnut Affogato

A simple dessert-style coffee that lets Wolf Ember Chocolate Hazelnut do most of the work. The hot coffee melts into cold vanilla ice cream for a rich, creamy drink-dessert with no flavored syrup required.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup strongly brewed Wolf Ember Chocolate Hazelnut coffee
  • 1 to 2 scoops vanilla ice cream or gelato
  • Optional: chocolate shavings, crushed hazelnuts, or a light drizzle of chocolate sauce

Step-by-step instructions

1. Brew the coffee.
Brew Wolf Ember Chocolate Hazelnut a little stronger than usual so the coffee flavor stays bold against the ice cream.

2. Add the ice cream.
Place 1 to 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream or gelato into a small glass, mug, or dessert bowl.

3. Pour the coffee.
Slowly pour the hot Chocolate Hazelnut coffee directly over the ice cream.

4. Finish it your way.
Serve immediately as-is, or top with chocolate shavings, crushed hazelnuts, or a very small drizzle of chocolate sauce.

Wolf Ember tip

The Chocolate Hazelnut coffee already brings the flavor, so there is no need to add hazelnut syrup unless you want a much sweeter dessert. Keeping the add-ins simple lets the coffee stay at the center of the drink.
