Affogato - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 scoop premium vanilla ice cream
1 fluid ounce fresh- brewed espresso (I would prefer the word 'demitasse' to 'fluid ounce' but the system won't take it, anyway, one of th)
1 teaspoon brandy (optional)
1/2 teaspoon sugar (optional)

Preparation

Put the scoop of ice cream in a pretty glass, bowl or coffee cup.
Combine the hot espresso with the brandy and sugar and pour over ice cream.
Serve immediately. (I have a recipe for Espresso Brittle posted - shards of this are lovely served over the Affogato).
