This Vietnamese iced coffee jelly is the perfect warm weather dessert that will keep you caffeinated while also keeping you cool. Created by Sneh at the food blog Cook Republic, the dessert recipe is a nut-free hybrid that is part beverage and part ice cream.
Suitable for serving at parties, the Vietnamese iced coffee jelly is an Asian-influenced and crowd-pleasing treat caffeine addicts and guests will love. Consisting of homemade espresso jellies, cream containing condensed milk and coconut milk, ice and more espresso mixed with lime zest over top, the energy-boosting treat has a very creamy and smooth texture. The jelly squares could also be consumed on their own if you don't want to go full-out with the drink portion.
