Step-by-step preparation:
1. Prepare the ingredients:
Pour the instant coffee, sugar and cold water into a large bowl.
I recommend using a bowl with high edges to avoid splashes while whisking.
2. Whip the mixture:
Using an electric whisk (or a stand mixer, if you prefer), begin whipping the mixture at medium-high speed.
After about 3-5 minutes, you will see that the mixture will transform into a frothy, dense and stable cream, with a light hazelnut color.
The consistency should be similar to that of whipped cream.
3. Serve your spumone:
Distribute the resulting cream into small glasses or cups, using a spoon or a piping bag for a more elegant result.
4. Decorate as desired:
For a delicious touch, you can add:
a pinch of bitter cocoa powder
dark chocolate chips
chopped hazelnuts or almonds
or some crunchy biscuits on the edge
5. Serve immediately or store:
You can enjoy the spumone immediately, or store it in the refrigerator for about 1 hour: it will become even fresher and more compact, perfect as a summer dessert.
