After a lackluster first attempt, I decided I was ready to try making coffee jelly again, and this time it turned out much better! I used a different recipe and got a softer set and more intense coffee flavor.
Notes:
- This is best made with fresh coffee.
- I poured it into a loaf pan to set and it ended up about 3/4 inch deep.
- I served it cubed in a small glass (wine glasses work nicely) with a little bit of heavy cream poured over it (once with a splash of coffee liqueur mixed in for a little extra sweetness), whipped cream on top, and chocolate shavings.
Verdict: I have finally found a coffee jelly recipe I like and would love to make it again if I were in the mood. However, I'm not sure how well this would stand up to being put in the bottom of a drink. I'd like to test that next time I make it.
