Grandpa’s cup is a delicious coffee-flavored ice cream that everyone, including me, loves 🙂
Today it feels a little less hot: there’s a light breeze and the air seems more breathable and less muggy.
In this scorching summer, I often enjoy ice creams because having little appetite, they satisfy me without making me feel heavy 🙂
Besides enjoying them while strolling, I sometimes prepare them at home.
Since I started making them at home, I have a lot of fun because they are not difficult to make, and you can get creative.
This time, I wanted to try Grandpa’s cup 😉
This ice cream is simple and quick to make: I only used 3 ingredients.
I made it without eggs, without using an ice cream maker, and without turning on the stove.
It’s creamy and thick at the same time.
In short, a real treat.
It can be served as a dessert at the end of a meal or as a snack.
I made generous portions: I used 4 medium cups, but you can also use large bowls.
Instead of whipped vegetable cream, you can use regular whipped cream.
I garnished Grandpa’s cup with coffee beans, but you can use chocolate chips instead.
