Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup cold brew coffee (or coffee that has been chilled)
  • 2 1/2 cups freshly brewed hot coffee
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 envelopes Knox gelatine
  • sweetened condensed milk
  • lightly-sweetened whipped cream

Directions

Step 1
Pour ½ cup cold coffee in a mixing bowl. Sprinkle gelatin over the cold coffee and let stand for 1 minute.
Step 2
Add the hot coffee to the cold coffee gelatin mixture, stirring constantly until the gelatin dissolves. Once dissolved, whisk in 3 tablespoons sugar.
Step 3
Let the coffee jelly mixture cool slightly until most of the bubbles have dissipated. Then ladle the mixture into 4 martini glasses and chill for a minimum of 3 hours.
Step 4
When ready to serve, remove glasses from the fridge and pour a thin layer of sweetened condensed milk over each glass, 1/8 to a ¼ of an inch thick. Top with a dollop of whipped cream.
Step 5
When eating, break up the coffee and mix it with the sweetened condensed milk and whipped cream. Enjoy!
