Granita

Made granita yesterday and it was very tasty! A good summer time treat!

Here is what I did...

Coffee Granita
2 cups coffee
1/3 cup sugar
Whipped cream

In a bowl combine the coffee and sugar. Mix until the sugar dissolves. Transfer mixture to a baking dish. Put in freezer and freeze until ice granules start to form around the edges (30 minutes to 1 hour). With a fork, stir and break up the granules. Freeze again and stir every 20 minutes or so until the mixture becomes and icy slush (about 2 hours). Serve in shallow wide-mouthed glasses or ice cream bowls -- top with whipped cream.

We really enjoyed it.
