Description

Imagine a dessert that captures the creamy, airy essence of your favorite whipped coffee drink—the viral Dalgona Coffee—and sets it into an ultra-creamy, no-bake cheesecake. That is the magic of the 3-Ingredient Whipped Coffee (Dalgona) Cheesecake. This is not your typical dense, baked New York-style cheesecake; rather, it is a lighter, fluffier confection, closer in texture to a mousse or an Italian semifreddo, but with the bold, irresistible flavor of coffee.
