Coffee and Wafer Semifreddo
A fresh, summer dessert, perfect to enjoy on hot summer days as an after-meal dessert, snack, or afternoon treat! The beauty of these desserts is that we can prepare them whenever it’s convenient and store them in the freezer for months if needed! So if you have unexpected guests, you can relax ☺️. To add a bit of crunchiness, I chose to put wafers, which perfectly complement the prepared coffee cream!
