Expert Tips

Ensure the dessert is frozen for at least 3 hours to set.
When pouring your milk into coffee, sugar, and cornstarch, ensure it is at room temperature. If the milk is Hot, it will form lumps. If the milk is cold, it will take time to make the custard.
Constantly mix the custard base on the stove with a whisk until thick; otherwise, the custard will get lumpy. In short, you will not get a smooth custard.
Use a hand mixer to whipto whip the coffee for the the Dalgona base. It will take less time and give you an amazing thick mixture.
You can use a sieve technique if you don’t have a hand mixer. Add the ingredients to a wide bowl, and instead of a whisk, use a sieve to whip the coffee. It is quick and efficient.
Always make the Dalgona base at the time of serving. Otherwise, it will get runny and ruin the texture and presentation of the dessert.

Caramel sauce: You can top the dessert with caramel sauce to add a hint of sweetness.

Storage

You can store the dessert in the refrigerator for a maximum of 2 days. We do not recommend freezing it, as it will become icy and the texture can get really lumpy. Make sure to cover the dessert with plastic wrap. erve chilled for the best taste experience.
