Dark Roast Coffee Gelée Recipes

Steps:

• Brew ground coffee in filter style coffeemaker or a sieve lined with a paper filter using 2 cups boiling hot water. Meanwhile, bring granulated sugar and remaining 1/4 cup hot water to a boil in a small saucepan, stirring until sugar is dissolved, then remove from heat. Sprinkle gelatin over 1 Tbsp cold water and let soften one minute. Stir together hot coffee, sugar syrup, and vanilla in a metal bowl, then add gelatin mixture, stirring until dissolved. Chill, covered, until softly set, at least 8 hours.
• For topping, force brown sugar through a sieve into bowl, then add cream and curry. Beat with an electric mixer or whisk until it just holds soft peaks.
• Divide gelee among 10 espresso cups (or other similar size cups) and top with a dollop of the cream.
