Recipe - Iced Coffee Granita

One half teaspoon Unflavored gelatin
2 tablespoon Water
One half cup Sweetened condensed milk;
(not evaporated)
1 One half teaspoon Instant espresso powder
One half teaspoon Vanilla
One half cup Wellchilled heavy cream

In a small saucepan sprinkle the gelatin over the water and let it soften
for 2 minutes. Add the milk and the espresso powder and heat the mixture
over moderate heat, whisking constantly, until the powder is dissolved.
Remove the pan from the heat, stir in the vanilla, and set the pan in a
bowl of ice and cold water, stirring the mixture every few minutes until it
is thick and cold. In a small bowl beat the cream until it just holds stiff
peaks and fold the coffee mixture into it gently but thoroughly. Spoon the
mousse into 2 chilled longstemmed glasses and chill it until ready to
serve.

Serves 2.
