Ingredients
3 cups warm coffee
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
Lightly sweetened whipped cream, for serving
Limoncello, for topping (optional)
Directions
- In a bowl, stir together the coffee, sugar, vanilla and salt until the sugar dissolves. Pour into an 8-inch square baking dish and place in the freezer for 2 hours. Remove from the freezer and use a fork to scrape any of the ice that has formed.
- Return to the freezer for another 2 hours, then repeat the scraping. If the granita is still not frozen, return to the freezer again and repeat the scraping. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream on top or drowned with 1/2 ounce of limoncello.
