Creamy Coffee Delight with Whipped Cream and Vanilla

Table of Contents

Main Coffee Mixture:

- Milk: 20 ml (approximately 2 tablespoons)
- Condensed milk: 3 tablespoons
- Whipped cream: 400 ml

Coffee Foam Topping:

1. Mix the coffee and condensed milk: In a bowl, combine 4 tablespoons of instant coffee with 3 tablespoons of condensed milk. Stir well to blend the flavors. The condensed milk will add sweetness and creaminess to the coffee, making it rich and smooth.

Heat the milk: Pour 20 ml (about 2 tablespoons) of milk into a small saucepan and warm it over low heat until it’s just about to simmer. Do not let it boil. Once warmed, pour it into the coffee mixture and stir well.
Add vanilla sugar: Stir in 10 g of vanilla sugar (about 2 teaspoons). This will infuse the coffee mixture with a lovely vanilla aroma and enhance its sweetness.

1. Whip the cream: In a large mixing bowl, pour 400 ml of heavy cream and whisk it using an electric mixer or a hand whisk until soft peaks form. This will take about 3-5 minutes with an electric mixer. You want the cream to be fluffy but still soft and light.

Combine the whipped cream with the coffee mixture: Gently fold the whipped cream into the coffee mixture. Use a spatula to slowly mix the two together, ensuring that the whipped cream maintains its light, airy texture. The result should be a creamy, coffee-infused mixture.

1. Mix the instant coffee, sugar, and water: In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of instant coffee, 2 tablespoons of sugar, and 2 tablespoons of hot water. Stir the mixture until the coffee granules dissolve.
2. Whip the coffee foam: Using an electric hand mixer or a whisk, beat the coffee, sugar, and water mixture until it becomes light and frothy. This should take about 2-3 minutes with an electric mixer or 5-7 minutes by hand. You’re looking for a light, whipped consistency similar to a meringue.

1. Layer the creamy coffee: Divide the creamy coffee mixture evenly into serving glasses or cups, filling them about three-quarters of the way.
2. Top with coffee foam: Gently spoon the whipped coffee foam over the creamy coffee layer, creating a beautiful contrast between the light, fluffy foam and the creamy coffee base.
3. Garnish and serve: If desired, you can garnish the drink with a sprinkle of cocoa powder, grated chocolate, or a light dusting of cinnamon. Serve immediately while the coffee foam is still airy and fresh.

- Customize the sweetness: If you prefer a sweeter drink, feel free to add more condensed milk or sugar to the coffee mixture. Alternatively, you can reduce the sweetness if you prefer a more balanced flavor.
- Cold or hot: This coffee delight can be enjoyed hot or cold. To serve it cold, chill the coffee mixture and whipped cream in the fridge before assembling. You can also add ice cubes to the drink for a refreshing summer treat.
- Add chocolate: For an even richer flavor, you can melt a little bit of chocolate and stir it into the coffee mixture before combining with the whipped cream. This adds a delicious mocha flavor to the drink.

Different toppings: Feel free to experiment with different toppings. Crushed nuts, shaved coconut, or a drizzle of caramel sauce can all add texture and flavor to the final drink.
Use real vanilla: If you have access to vanilla extract or fresh vanilla beans, you can use them instead of vanilla sugar. A teaspoon of vanilla extract or the seeds from half a vanilla bean would work well.

- Refrigeration: If you have any leftovers, the coffee mixture can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. However, the whipped coffee foam should be made fresh for best results. If you need to store it, the foam will lose some of its volume but can still be used within a few hours.

Freezing: While this drink is best served fresh, you can freeze the coffee mixture in ice cube trays and blend the cubes with milk or cream later to create a frozen coffee drink. Just blend the frozen cubes with milk in a blender for a quick coffee slush.
