This classy and delightful adult ice cream dessert consists of a scope of (preferably) Gelato di crema, served in a little whiskey and with a dusting of finely ground espresso coffee!
Ingredients
Gelato di crema (at least 1 scope per serving)
6 egg yolks
170 gr sugar
500 ml (about 2.1 cups) whole milk
peel of ½ orange
1 tablespoon Grand Marnier liqueur
The "Dusting" (per portion)
1 teaspoon per serving of finely ground espresso coffee
1-2 tablespoons of whiskey or bourbon
Instructions
Scope the gelato, sprinkle 1 teaspoon ground espresso coffee powder over each portion and pour in 1-2 tablespoons of whiskey (enough to pool at the bottom). Serve at once!

PS. I'll forward a suggestion from the late Marcella Hazan herself: if you don't have any gelato di crema, you could use a good-quality vanilla ice cream (and - in a pinch - even store-bought vanilla ;-)
