Affogato coffee - an Italian dessert to impress
In Italian, ‘affogato’ means ‘drowned’ - which, when you read the recipe, makes perfect sense. To be honest, though, we’re not really bothered what the name means, we’re just grateful they exist at all. And why wouldn’t we? It’s coffee. With ice cream. Need we say more?
