Ina’s Tip
Do not miss out the cream dusted with cinnamon, it really makes a difference. Serve with small squares of cake or shortbread if desired.
Method:
Sugar Syrup
Combine sugar and water in a small saucepan. Heat slowly until sugar has dissolved, just bring to the boil.
Granita
Add boiling water to the sugar syrup together with the coffee granules and salt.
Pour into a flat container. Put into the freezer.
Store serving glasses in the fridge to chill.
When granita is half-frozen, stir and scrape with a fork to break up the sugar crystals.
Return granita to freezer, freeze overnight. Scrape and break up sugar crystals twice again the next day.
To Serve
Whip the cream with a little Cheesecake Mix to stabilise it. Do this in advance and refrigerate.
Divide the granita between the chilled glasses. Top with whipped cream and a coffee bean.
Dust lightly with cinnamon. Serve straight away in chilled glasses because it melts very quickly.
Coffee Granita
What to serve after a heavy braai meal? Skip the dessert and coffee and serve a frozen coffee granita with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon.- Serves: 4 - 6
