Preparation

20 mins

Low

In a bowl, we put the dulce de leche and add 3/4 cup of water, mixing until we achieve a liquid consistency and set aside. In the blender, we pour the sweetened condensed milk and the half-and-half, then add the reserved dulce de leche and 1/2 teaspoon of instant coffee, blending all the ingredients and setting aside. We hydrate the 3 packets of natural gelatin in 3/4 cup of water, then microwave in intervals of 20 seconds or use a double boiler until dissolved and without lumps. We add the dissolved gelatin in the blender with the other ingredients and blend a little more to completely integrate all the ingredients. We grease our mold or individual molds and refrigerate for 2 hours. We decorate with star anise seeds (optional) and serve.
