Dalgona coffee recipe



Ingredients

For the coffee foam:


2 tsp Instant Coffee

2 tsp Billington's Golden Caster Sugar

2 tsp Water

 

For the milk:

100ml Milk

2 tsp Billington's Very Dark or Amber Maple Syrup

1 tsp Nielsen-Massey Vanilla Extract

 
For the ganache:

200g Dark Chocolate, chopped

150ml Water

1 tsp Billington's Golden Caster or Light Muscovado Sugar
 

Method

In a small bowl, whisk the instant coffee, caster sugar and water until light, thick and frothy. For a softer foam double the water volume. 

In a glass, mix together the milk, maple syrup and vanilla extract.

To make the ganache, bring the water and sugar to a simmer in a small pot. Place the chocolate in a bowl, pour over the water and sugar mix and whisk. Divide it into two glasses and allow to cool fully.

Carefully pour the milk mix over the ganache and then spoon over the coffee foam.

Finish with some chocolate shavings or a chocolate button and a sprinkle of demerara. 

Enjoy by drinking the milk and foam before spooning out the ganache. Otherwise, enjoy as a dessert by digging through all the layers with a spoon.
