A refreshing and creamy summer treat combining fluffy whipped dalgona coffee granita with a luscious cardamom cream topping, perfect for hot days and gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 tablespoons instant coffee granules
  • 4 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 4 tablespoons hot water
  • 1 cup cold water (240 ml)
  • 1 cup heavy cream (240 ml), chilled
  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream (120 ml), cold
  • 1 tablespoon powdered sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground green cardamom
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions

  1. Whip the Dalgona Coffee Base: In a medium mixing bowl, combine 4 tablespoons instant coffee, 4 tablespoons granulated sugar, and 4 tablespoons hot water. Using an electric mixer, whip on high speed for 3-5 minutes until thick, glossy, and fluffy with stiff peaks.
  2. Prepare the Granita Mixture: In a separate bowl, pour 1 cup cold water and gently fold the whipped coffee mixture into it. Whip 1 cup heavy cream until soft peaks form and carefully fold it into the coffee mixture to create a creamy, airy granita base.
  3. Freeze and Fluff: Transfer the granita base to a shallow, freezer-safe dish. Freeze for 30 minutes, then scrape and fluff with a fork. Repeat scraping every 20-30 minutes for 2 hours until fully frozen but fluffy.
  4. Make the Cardamom Cream: Chill a mixing bowl and beaters for 10 minutes. Pour 1/2 cup cold heavy cream into the bowl, add 1 tablespoon powdered sugar, 1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom, and 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract (if using). Whip on medium-high speed until soft to medium peaks form.
  5. Serve: Spoon the granita into glasses or bowls and top generously with cardamom cream. Optionally, sprinkle with ground cardamom or coffee beans.

Notes

Keep an eye on the granita while freezing and fluff every 20-30 minutes to maintain a fluffy texture. Folding gently is key to preserving airiness. Use fresh instant coffee for best flavor. Dairy-free substitutions with coconut cream are possible. Adjust sugar to taste.
