In this Filipino-language cooking tutorial, Leslie Pascual‑Bartolo demonstrates how to prepare a Cheesy Coffee Jelly dessert, targeting viewers who want an easy, affordable sweet treat. She begins by explaining the importance of coffee strength for the jelly cubes, recommending 1–2 tablespoons of coffee (or 1 tablespoon for a milder flavor) and describing how cube size affects texture. Leslie then details three milk‑and‑cream proportion experiments: (1) 1:1 condensed milk to all‑purpose cream (sweet), (2) 1 condensed milk to 2 parts cream (less sweet, creamier), and (3) the preferred balance of 1 condensed milk, 1 all‑purpose cream, and 1 evaporated milk, which yields a balanced, not overly sweet flavor. She discusses cheese addition, suggesting grated or cubed cheese mixed into the agar before setting the jelly, or used as a topping just before serving to preserve its flavor. Leslie advises against freezing the jelly‑in‑cream mixture because it degrades texture; instead, she recommends freezing only the cream‑milk mixture, then scooping it with the jelly cubes and cheese to achieve an ice‑cream‑like or shaved‑ice texture. For extra coffee depth, she adds 1–2 teaspoons of instant coffee to the cream‑milk base, leaving the exact amount to personal taste. The video concludes with a standard call‑to‑action, encouraging likes, shares, subscriptions, and directing viewers to her social handles @fullyfreelyleslie for further interaction.

Hello po, ako po si Leslie and welcome to my channel. This is where I share reliable recipes for the Filipino home, especially of desserts. And today, ipapahita ko po sa inyo paano gumuwat ng Cheesy Coffee Jelly para po ito sa mga nagahanap ng madali at affordable dessert na pwedeng ihandang yung garatin na pagbagong ta'ol. Important notes po to 'to sa pagkawahan nito, cheesy coffee jelly. Sa pagkawahan po ng mismo coffee jelly cubes, nasasaini po kung gaano katapan yung coffee o yung flavor ng coffee na hilalagin ninyo. I recommend 1 to 2 tablespoons pero nasasaini po yon kung gusto nyo pa nang mas matapan, then dagdaganyo po. Kung gusto nyo naman po na hindi ganun kalasa yung kape, then bawasan yon pa po. 1 tablespoon is enough. And then, if you want to use cubes, you can cut it into cubes about half an inch. If you like it to be mushy, you can cut it into small pieces. It's better because it will melt faster. But if you like it to be more spiny, then you can cut it into your preferred size. So, that's the proportions of cream and milk. Tatlo po yung klasé or tatlo po yung proportion na sinubukan ko. Meron po yung 1:1, 1 condensed milk at 1 all-purpose cream. Eto ang proportion po na eto, ay medyo makatamiisan. Pero kung yun po yung prefer niño, then go ahead. And then the next na ginawa ko po is 1 condensed milk sa dalawa ng all-purpose cream. Dito na manpo, so hindi na sha masado matamis. Pero medyo nakakasuyan na kasi na, dahil dun sa cream, sa dami ng cream na, nakalagay. Chaka ayung texture niya, mag-ibaner eh. Tapos ang na find out ko na best na proportion ay, 1 condensed milk, 1 all-purpose cream, at chaka 1 evaporated milk. So dito po sa proportion na ito, nakita ko na yung flavor mas balanced. Malinamnamsha hindi siya kaanong matamis. Nayon, dunaman sa pagdagdag ng cheese. So una, puede nyong i-grate yung cheese katulad ng ginawa ako dito, or gawin yung cubes. Pero I really recommend dawag nyo sa agar ihalo doon sa coffee jelly, ninyo. Ihalo nilang sha, ilagay nila as topping just before serving. Kasi ang nangyayari dito sa cheese na to, ay, lumalabas yung flavor nyan. So nawawa lang sha nang la sa paghinahalomon na sha don sa cream and milk mixture. Usually po, ang coffee jelly Ay, pinagahalo-halo na lahat ng mga ingredients, so yung cream, milk, and then yung coffee jelly cubes. Tapos, dito na po, sa case na 'to nilalagyan ko po yung cheese on top. Pero, mero in po ako ng suggestion, kasi pag ginawa niyo po na hinaling yung coffee jelly cubes dunsa milk and cream mixture, hindi niyo pusha mafi freeze kasi magbabago po yung quality ng cubes o ng gelatin. Kapag freeze niyo po sha tapos na defrost. So ang maganda pong gawain ay, so halili nyo po yung all-purpose cream yung condensed milk sha kayong evaporated milk. Aluwin yung mabutay laganyon konting asin tapos i-freeze niya sha so para titigas sha tapos kapag isiserve niya na, kumuwaha yung o mag-scoop out kayo don sa pinatigas na yung cream and milk mixture laganyo i-pop niyo na Coffee jelly cubes, cheese. So para medyo parang ang datingya, ice cream, parang shaved ice, parang peding parang bingsuren sha. Nayo 'n. Kapat ganiton ginawa ninyo, sempre walang kahalo 'n coffee flavor doon sa cream and milk mixture. Para makaroon ng coffee flavor, dagdag 'nyo 'nang instant coffee. So siguro mga 1 to 2 teaspoons. Nasa sa inyo pa rin kung gano katapa ng gusto niyo magin coffee flavor dun sa cream and milk mixture. Salamat, salamat sa panunod.
