Chocolate Cherry Cafe Glace image

The hole-in-the-wall coffee place near my childhood home of N'Awlins used to serve Cafe Glace, which is essentially just a big cup of hot, sweetened coffee, with a huge scoop of vanilla ice cream in it. And it's indescribably wonderful. But you just can't have that kind of sugar load every day. If you keep the cherry puree premade, you can have this one every morning. Made, but not submitted, for RSC 12.

Time 5m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 pints fresh cherries, pitted
2 tablespoons Splenda sugar substitute (or to taste)
3/4 cup brewed coffee, very hot
1 tablespoon sugar-free chocolate syrup
1/4 cup sugar-free vanilla ice cream (small scoop)

Steps:

  • Pit the cherries, and place in the blender with Splenda, and a little water or juice as needed, puree smooth. You may need more or less Splenda, depending on the sweetness of your cherries. This will keep tightly lidded for several days.
  • Mix coffee, chocolate syrup, and 1 to 2 tbsp of cherry puree in a big, wide mug.
  • Top with a the ice cream, and give it a few moments to start to melt before drinking.
  • Enjoy!
