Coffee Craze

Jumping into the Dalgona coffee craze! it looks so rich and decadent that I had to try making it too!

It's simplicity - all you need are equal parts coffee, sugar and hot water plus arm muscles if you are whipping it manually, makes is the perfect instant fancy coffee fix.

The process was quite similar to what our office boy did to make cappuccino. Instead of putting coffee, sugar and creamer or milk into a cup of hot water, they would whisk it with a teaspoon until thick and creamy then slowly pure the hot water making the foam rise to the top. Oh how I miss afternoon coffee breaks at the office!


Dalgona Coffee

Ingredients:
- equal parts instant coffee, sugar and hot water
- milk and ice for serving
- optional chocolate shavings, chocolate sauce or cocoa powder for topping (if you don't have any just use instant coffee too!)

how to:
- combine coffee, sugar and water in s small bowl and whisk away until thick and creamy!
-  two thirds of a glass with milk, add a few ice cubes
- dollop whipped coffee on top of milk and dust with cocoa or coffee or your choice of topping

dressing up desserts

I had just purchased a half gallon tub of ice cream and wanted to dress it up by making waffle cups. I knew it is made of the same batter as pancakes but without a waffle cone or cup maker I have a general idea on how I can make it into a basket shape and make it crispy. So I started by making pancake batter (again feeling lazy I used boxed mix) and thinned it bit with a little more milk. I cooked them as you would a pancake but since it was a thin batter you have to be careful in flipping it as it is more delicate.  When it has cooked I arranged them on an inverted slightly greased muffin pan then I bake them at 100 degrees until they were crispy - I did not want to bake them at higher temperature for fear of burning them so I baked at a lower temperature for longer time. dessert time!!!!
