This coffee-flavored granita is simple to prepare. Make sure the texture is crystallized, like shaved ice.
Ingredients
How to Make It
- Set the freezer to its coldest setting and place four freezerproof serving bowls or glasses in the freezer. In a small saucepan, dissolve the sugar in 1¼ cup cold water over medium heat. Increase the heat and bring to a boil, then boil for 5 minutes to make a light syrup.
- Pour the syrup into a shallow, freezerproof dish. Stir in the vanilla extract and coffee, then set aside to cool completely.
- Transfer to the freezer. Use a fork to break up the frozen chunks every 30 minutes or so. Continue to do this for 4 hours, or until the mixture has the texture of shaved ice, then leave the granita in the freezer until ready to serve.
