Ingredients:
|
Instructions:
1. In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin powder and 1/4 cup water.
2. Place 2 cups strongly brewed coffee and 2 tablespoons sugar in a medium saucepan and bring to a near boil over medium-high heat.
3. Turn off the heat, and whisk in the gelatin mixture until it dissolves. Set aside to cool, about 10 to 15 minutes.
4. Pour the coffee gelatin mixture into a shallow baking dish (8- or 9-inch square or 11 x 7 inches) and refrigerate until set, about 5 hours.
5. Once the coffee jelly has set, cut the gelatin into 1/2-inch cubes.
6. Spoon the cubes into individual serving dishes and top with whipped cream, if desired.
Notes:
- Make it sweeter - If you'd like sweeter coffee jelly, try an extra tablespoon of sugar and taste the coffee mixture (adding more if needed) before mixing it with the gelatin.
- Make it vegetarian - To make this recipe vegetarian, use agar-agar instead of gelatin.
- Make it personal - Instead of cutting into cubes, make individual servings by pouring the liquid mixture into small bowls or cups.
- Make it a treat - Create a coffee experience by placing the cubes in a mug and adding some sweetened heavy cream or condensed milk.
