395g(14oz)sweetened condensed milk
2teaspooninstant coffee granules
20g(1½tablespoon)dark chocolategrated
Garnish
10g(¾tablespoon)dark chocolategrated
INSTRUCTIONS
In a large mixing jug, combine the heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, and instant coffee granules.
Using an electric mixer, beat the mixture on medium-high speed until it increases in volume and thickens. This may take a few minutes.
Using a micro-grater, grate two tablespoons of chocolate over the ice cream and briefly mix again until evenly incorporated.
Spoon or pour the creamy mixture into individual cups, ensuring they are freezer-safe and have a capacity of around 200 mL or 7 oz.
Place the filled cups in the freezer and let them set for at least 4 hours. For best results, leave them overnight.
Once the coffee cream cups are thoroughly frozen, remove them from the freezer a few minutes before serving to allow them to soften slightly. Garnish with additional grated chocolate or a sprinkle of cocoa powder if desired.
