    Coffee and Doughnuts

    This is definitely not a recipe, just a delicious put-together. Use your favourite ice cream and icing combination, if coffee isn’t your preference. 

    Serves: 4

    INGREDIENTS

    4 plain ring doughnuts
    about ½ litre espresso ice cream (I used Kohu Road brand)
    Coffee icing
    1 teaspoon instant coffee powder 
    2 teaspoons milk or water
    ½ cup icing sugar, sifted

    METHOD

    Icing: Stir the coffee and milk or water together until the coffee has dissolved, then stir in the icing sugar to make a smooth shiny icing. Add a little more liquid or icing sugar if necessary to make a thick pourable consistency. 

    Cut the doughnuts in half. Place a scoop of ice cream on the bottom half and gently press to an even layer then sandwich with the tops. 

    Place on a serving plate and spoon over the icing, letting it drip down the sides. Leave for a couple of minutes for the icing to set, then serve. Makes 4
