Vanilla ice cream topped with a shot of matcha brew. This matcha affogato is simple, delicious, and the perfect dessert for warm summer days.
Hi! This is Andrea from Cooking with a Wallflower, and I’m back this month on Ask Anna to share with you a brand new recipe perfect for warm summer days.
I hope you’ve been able to stay cool these past several weeks. Has it been hot where you are? I live in San Francisco, so we don’t really feel the heatwave as much here. But in the rare occasions when we do, it is unbearable, especially since none of us really have air conditioning in our homes in the city. There’s almost never a need since the city has its own natural air conditioning. But when it gets hot, it’s really hot.
So, having an easy summery dessert on hand is essential for us. Something that’s easy to make yet so delicious. Something that would be perfect for keeping us cool when we need it.
Today, I want to share with you this matcha affogato. It’s a twist to the classic affogato with espresso. Vanilla ice cream with a shot of hot matcha brew poured over the top. The slight bitterness of the matcha balances out the sweetness of the vanilla ice cream. Stir the matcha into the ice cream, and you have an amazing dessert. If you’re a fan of matcha, this is definitely the dessert for you.
In a small bowl, add matcha powder. Next, pour a little bit of hot water into the bowl. Whisk until the matcha has completely turned into a smooth paste. Then pour in the rest of the hot water. Whisk until the matcha powder has dissolved.
Add vanilla ice cream to a small cup or bowl. Pour the matcha brew over the ice cream.
Serve the matcha affogato immediately.
Enjoy!
