The creamy version of an iced coffee! The whipped cream topping can be made almost as fast as you can find and open that jar of spray-cream from the fridge. And, it is much more delicious!

Ingredients

Coffee Jelly

• 1 tablespoon gelatin
• ¼ cup cold water
• 1 ½ cups hot coffee
• ¼ cup sugar

Whipped Cream Topping

• 1 cup heavy whipping cream, well chilled
• ½ teaspoon cream of tartar
• 2 teaspoons sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Jelly Instructions

1. Soak gelatin in ¼ cup cold water.
2. Dissolve in 1 ½ cups hot coffee.
3. Add ¼ cup sugar. Stir until sugar is dissolved.
4. Mold, chill and serve with whipped cream.

Topping Instructions (Yield 2 cups)

1. Pour whipping cream into a large bowl.
2. Sprinkle the other three ingredients over. Whip, using an electric mixer on high speed, for about one minute until mixture reaches a creamy consistency. Do not over-whip, which will harden the cream.
3. Cover and store in refrigerator until ready to serve.
