RECIPE: SALTED CARAMEL AFFOGATOS
makes 5-6 drinks
ingredients
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup water
- 3/4 cup heavy cream
- 3 tbsp butter
- 1/2 tsp fine sea salt
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream (homemade or store bought)
- 5-6 cups strong coffee
Directions:
-
To make the slated caramel, add the granulated sugar and water to a heavy bottomed sauce pot over medium-high heat and stir until it begins to boil. Turn the heat down to medium-low and allow the sugar to boil, without stirring, until it turns a deep amber color( about 7-10 minutes).
-
Once the sugar turns deep amber, remove it from the heat. Whisk in the heavy cream until smooth and then whisk in the butter, salt, and vanilla.
-
Allow the caramel to cool (it will thicken considerably as it cools).
-
Put 2 tbsp of the caramel sauce in the bottom of your ZWILLING® Sorrento Double Wall Coffee Glass Mug.
-
Add the ice cream.
-
Pour hot coffee over top. Drizzle with caramel and serve immediately.
- Enjoy!
