Dalgona Coffee

 Dalgona coffee seems to be the latest trending recipe. It's so easy with minimal ingredients that we decided to try it. Minimal ingredients is a must while we shelter in place due to this COVID-19 pandemic.

I made the first glass according to what I've seen online. Equal parts water, cane sugar, instant/crystallized coffee. For us this was 2 teaspoons of each.  I don't like my coffee strong, the recipes I've seen call for a tablespoon of each ingredient. This whipped up fast and formed pretty soft peaks. It was really sweet though.

My second glass I used the coffee, water, and sweetened condensed milk. This got thicker during whipping but it didn't really whip up well.  It tasted better and was less sweet.

We had both batches with half and half, and topped them with cinnamon and cayenne. So yum.
