Inspired by my trip to Taiwan, where jelly desserts are very popular, these cute coffee jelly desserts are a fun and easy make-ahead treat. I like to serve them in small clear mugs with sweetened condensed milk so they look like espresso shots.
2cups hot fresh brewed coffee, I used Starbucks Pike Place Roast
4tbspsweetened condensed milk, not evaporated milk
Instructions
In a small bowl, add gelatin and hot water and mix with a spoon until all of the gelatin powder is dissolved. Scrape it into a medium pot, and then add in sugar and hot coffee. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, until gelatin is dissolved and liquid is uniform.
Pour coffee jelly into molds. I used clear espresso cups but you can use other mold shapes, cups. You can also pour into a baking pan and cut into cubes when it solidifies. Put jelly into refrigerator and chill overnight.
Keep jelly in the fridge until just before serving. Right before serving, top with condensed milk. I added 1 tbsp per each espresso cup. Serve cold.
