Instructions
1
Place a scoop of vanilla gelato into a small glass or espresso cup.
2
Pull a fresh shot of espresso (or use a stovetop moka pot for strong coffee).
Tip: The espresso must be hot and the gelato must be frozen solid. The temperature contrast is the entire point of this dessert.
3
Pour the hot espresso directly over the gelato. Serve immediately with a spoon and an optional amaretti cookie on the side.
