Ingredients

• 1 cup water
• 2.5 teaspoons gelatin powder
• 2 cups brewed coffee (strong)
• 0.25 cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup heavy cream (optional, for serving)
• 2 tablespoons chocolate shavings or cocoa powder (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine 1 cup of water with the gelatin powder. Let it sit for 5 minutes to bloom.

Step 2

Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, combine the brewed coffee and granulated sugar. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves completely. Do not let it boil.

Step 3

Reduce the heat to low and add the bloomed gelatin mixture to the saucepan. Stir until the gelatin is fully dissolved, about 1-2 minutes.

Step 4

Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 5

Pour the mixture into individual serving dishes or a single medium-sized dish and let it cool to room temperature.

Step 6

Cover the dishes with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 3-4 hours, or until the gelatin is fully set.

Step 7

Before serving, optionally drizzle heavy cream over the set coffee gelatin and garnish with chocolate shavings or a light dusting of cocoa powder.
