vanilla bean affogato

A vanilla bean Affogato, a simple Italian treat worthy of any afternoon, dinner party or just a sweet treat. Something so simple yet so tasty. The original recipe for this is a semi soft vanilla gelato topped with a hot shot of espresso. Think root beer float but for big kids!
