Ingredients

  • Skyr170 g
  • Espresso1 shot, about 30 g

Cooking this one?

Add it to your shopping list and keep looking. The list adds the quantities up across everything you pick.

Method

  1. Make the espresso and leave it to cool for a few minutes. Stir the cocoa and sweetener into it to make a thin paste.

  2. Beat the coffee paste into the skyr a spoon at a time so it stays thick, then spoon into a small glass.

  3. Grate the chocolate over the top with a fine grater and chill for ten minutes if you can wait.

Worth knowing

  • One square of chocolate grated goes a long way. Chopped, the same 5 g looks like almost nothing.
  • A splash of strong cold brew works in place of the espresso and is usually to hand.
