If you're a coffee and chocolate lover, this sauce is a real gem. It combines the richness of chocolate with the depth of coffee to enhance your homemade ice cream made with Ninja Creami. Perfect for those who like a slightly bolder and more intense dessert!
Ingredients :
- 100g of dark chocolate (or milk chocolate, depending on your preference)
- 50 ml of espresso or very strong coffee
- 100 ml of full liquid cream
- 50 g of sugar
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract (optional)
- 1 pinch of salt (to intensify the flavors)
Preparation :
- Prepare the espresso.
Start by making a good espresso or a strong coffee. If you don't have an espresso machine, concentrated filter coffee will also work. Set it aside. - Melt the chocolate.
In a small saucepan, gently heat the heavy cream. Add the chopped dark chocolate and let it melt over low heat, stirring regularly until you obtain a smooth and creamy texture. - Add the coffee and sugar.
Once the chocolate is melted, add the espresso, sugar, and a pinch of salt. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients. If you want an even sweeter and more fragrant flavor, you can add the vanilla extract at this point. - Let it thicken.
Simmer over low heat for about 5 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent the chocolate from sticking to the bottom of the pan. The mixture will thicken slightly and reach a perfect consistency for pouring. - Let it cool.
Remove the coulis from the heat and let it cool to room temperature before using. You can then store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for about a week (but honestly, I doubt you'll be able to resist it that long!).
My Personal Tip:
This chocolate-coffee sauce is a real treat on vanilla or caramel ice cream made with the Ninja Creami. Personally, I love swirling this sauce into frozen yogurt or even a red fruit sorbet for a surprising contrast of flavors. If you're a fan of warm desserts, you can also pour it over crepes or pancakes with a scoop of ice cream on top… Guaranteed success!
Here's a recipe that combines the intensity of coffee and the indulgence of chocolate to transform any frozen dessert into a truly exceptional taste experience. This chocolate coffee sauce is the perfect finishing touch for your Ninja Creami creations, making them utterly irresistible!
