    Steps

    1

    Cut bread cheese into small cubes.

    2

    Place cheese cubes in a cup.

    3

    Pour hot coffee over the cheese.

    4

    Let sit for 1 minute — the cheese softens but doesn't melt.

    5

    Sip the coffee and eat the coffee-soaked cheese with a spoon.

    Pro Tip

    Juustoleipä (Finnish squeaky cheese) is available at specialty stores. It absorbs the coffee flavor beautifully.
