Ingredients
2 3 tablespoons Medium-coarse ground coffee
3 cups Cold water
2 scoops Vanilla ice cream
2 tablespoons Shaved dark chocolate
Directions
In a small bowl, whisk together the medium-coarse ground coffee and cold water until well combined. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and let the mixture steep at room temperature for approximately 12 hours.
After 12 hours, whisk the mixture again to ensure even saturation. Line a funnel with a moistened paper towel and slowly pour the coffee mixture through the lined funnel into a clean bowl, allowing the liquid to filter through while trapping the grounds above.
Divide the vanilla ice cream between two coffee or espresso cups, placing one scoop in each cup.
Pour approximately 1/4 to 1/2 cup of the cold-brewed coffee over the ice cream in each cup. Top with the shaved dark chocolate and serve immediately while the ice cream is still frozen and the coffee is cold.
