Ingredients
- 250 ml (1 cup) espresso, cooled
- 1 x 395 g can (1¼ cups) sweetened condensed milk
- 180 ml (¾ cup) thickened cream
Coffee syrup
- 60 ml (¼ cup) espresso
- 55 g (¼ cup) caster sugar
- 175 g (½ cup) liquid glucose
Cooling time 30 minutes
Freezing time 5 hours
You will need 6 icy pole sticks and 6 x 125 ml dariole moulds for this recipe.
Instructions
Combine espresso, condensed milk and cream in a large jug and stir until combined. Divide equally among 6 x 125 ml dariole moulds, then freeze for 2 hours.
Insert icy pole sticks in the centre of each, then freeze for a further 3 hours or until frozen.
Meanwhile, to make coffee syrup, place espresso, sugar and glucose in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring to dissolve sugar. Bring to a simmer, then cook for 15 minutes or until slightly reduced. Remove from heat and cool completely (mixture will thicken considerably).
To serve, remove from moulds and dip tops into coffee syrup.
