The weather in this part of our world is getting warmer each day. We are craving to have some cold beverage. We decided to make this insanely delicious Chocolate Affogato . Cold beverages are in demand in Summers. I am trying different cold drinks to beat the heat but avoiding store bought drinks. Staying home my boys have become more demanding at times. Well I am happy working from home as i get to spend quality time with my family and get to experiment with new recipes.
An affogato (Italian for “drowned”) is an Italian coffee-based dessert. It usually takes the form of a scoop of vanilla gelato or ice cream topped or “drowned” with a shot of hot espresso. It is considered as a drink instead of dessert in some parts of the world.No matter what it is called it is absolutely tempting.
