Affogato

Do you want to have dessert but don't want to overeat? Then the Affogato is a very good choice.
This Italian ice cream dessert is just a scoop of vanilla ice cream in a cup, topped with hot espresso. So not heavy on your stomach at all! And did you know that the name comes from the Italian word: "Affogare," which means to drown. It makes sense. The scoop of ice cream more or less drowns in the espresso, a true Italian finish!
