Ona Chapman'S Coffee Frappe
A rich and creamy coffee frappe blending strong coffee, sweetened with sugar, topped with whipped cream and vanilla ice cream for a cooling, indulgent treat.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Dissolve sugar in hot coffee and allow to cool.
- Add 1 pint of whipped cream to the cooled coffee mixture.
- When ready to serve, add 6 to 8 quarts of vanilla ice cream.
Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider using cold brew coffee instead of regular strong coffee. If you're looking to reduce sugar, try using a sugar substitute or reducing the amount of sugar to taste. Experiment with flavored ice creams, like caramel or coffee, for a unique twist. This frappe pairs beautifully with Loren'S Hot Spiced Apple Cider for a delightful beverage spread.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the coffee frappe in chilled glasses for a refreshing treat. Consider garnishing with chocolate shavings or a dusting of cocoa powder for an elegant touch. This dessert is perfect for summer parties or brunches, and it complements sweet treats like 'You Won't Believe' Toffee Crunch Cookies beautifully.
Storage & Reheating
Store leftover coffee frappe in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To serve again, you can blend it to restore its frothy texture, or simply stir well before serving. Avoid freezing, as the ice cream will not maintain its original texture.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make this recipe vegan?
Yes, to make the coffee frappe vegan, use plant-based whipped cream and dairy-free vanilla ice cream. Almond or coconut ice cream works well as substitutes, providing a deliciously creamy texture while keeping it dairy-free.
How can I adjust the sweetness of the frappe?
To adjust sweetness, simply start with less sugar and taste the coffee mixture before adding more. You can also experiment with flavored syrups, like vanilla or hazelnut, to enhance the flavor while controlling sweetness.
What type of coffee works best for this frappe?
A strong coffee or espresso is ideal for this frappe, as it ensures a rich flavor that holds up against the sweetness of the sugar and cream. Cold brew coffee is also a great option for a smoother, less acidic taste.
