tiramisu affogato



Fancy name yet oh so easy! Sounds like the perfect dessert for me (I have baking issues). Outcome? Delish. Freddy ate the whole thing in an instant. From Gourmet via epicurious (except I divided this by 3):


Tiramisu Afogato
6 servings

Ingredients
3/4 cup chilled heavy cream
1 tablespoon sugar
1 pint vanilla ice cream
1 pint coffee ice cream
9 savoiardi (Italian crisp ladyfingers), coarsely crumbled
1 1/4 cups freshly brewed espresso (10 ounces) or 1 1/4 cups boiling water and 3 tablespoons instant-espresso powder
A small piece bittersweet chocolate

Instructions
Beat cream with sugar until it just holds stiff peaks. Great instructions on how to make whipped cream can be found here. Divide vanilla and coffee ice creams among glasses, then top with ladyfingers.



Pour hot espresso on top and dollop with whipped cream. Grate chocolate on top.
