Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons unflavored gelatin powder
- 1/4 cup water (for blooming gelatin)
- 1 cup strong brewed Vietnamese coffee (or espresso)
- 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 2 tablespoons sugar (optional, for added sweetness)
Instructions
- In a small bowl, sprinkle gelatin over 1/4 cup water and let it bloom for about 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, brew 1 cup of strong Vietnamese coffee.
- Heat the brewed coffee in a saucepan over low heat and dissolve half of the bloomed gelatin into it, stirring well. Add sugar if desired for extra sweetness.
- Pour the coffee mixture into molds or glasses, filling halfway. Refrigerate until set, about 1 hour.
- In another saucepan, gently warm the whole milk and sweetened condensed milk together.
- Stir in the remaining bloomed gelatin until fully dissolved.
- Once the coffee layer is set, carefully pour the cream mixture over the coffee layer.
- Chill in the refrigerator for another 2-3 hours, or until fully set.
- Serve chilled, optionally topped with whipped cream or a dusting of cocoa powder.
Notes
- Use a strong brew for authentic flavor; Vietnamese drip coffee is ideal.
- Adjust sweetness according to preference by modifying the amount of condensed milk and sugar.
- Make in individual glasses for an elegant presentation.
