#SundaySupper Recipes with Coffee: Eiskaffee (German Coffee with Ice Cream)

#SundaySupper is celebrating coffee today! This week’s event is hosted by Wendy of Wholistic Woman and I am joining with a recipe for Eiskaffee, German Coffee with Ice Cream.

The transition to autumn is beginning here in Virgina, but we have still had quite a few days in the 90s (F). Yesterday was the first day of Oktoberfest in Munich and no better way to celebrate the still hot days than with a glass of Eiskaffee. The German Eiskaffee takes Iced Coffee a step further with a scoop or two of vanilla ice cream and a whipped cream topping. It is great way to combine a needed caffeine kick with a delicious, chilled dessert.

Eiskaffee is open to variations. Add a chocolate fix with chocolate ice cream or a drizzle of chocolate syrup. I topped the Eiskaffee with Schlagsahne (whipped cream) and grated chocolate, but you can also use sprinkles, cocoa powder, or even ground cinnamon. I made the whipped cream by adding some heavy cream and a little vanilla sugar to a blender and processing just until whipped.

To help keep the drink extra chilled, place the serving glasses in the freezer for 5 minutes or so before assembling.

I added the ice cream to the glass before the coffee. For two distinct layers, add the coffee first and leave enough room to top with a scoop or two of ice cream.

Want to make this a more kid-friendly treat? Substitute the coffee with chocolate milk to make Eisschokolade.
