Ingredients You'll Need

4 scoops (about 1/4 cup each) chocolate ice cream
4 cups strong hot coffee
Chocolate shavings or toasted sliced almonds, if desired
Directions

Special Touch
Serve this indulgent coffee with chocolate-covered spoons. Look for them at gourmet stores. Or make your own by dipping silver or plastic spoons into melted candy coating; refrigerate until firm.
