Instructions
- Craft a robust coffee base by dissolving coffee granules in boiling water, incorporating granulated sugar and vanilla extract until completely integrated.

- Crown each layer with luxurious, cloud-like whipped cream, creating a visually appealing and textural contrast.

Notes
- Customize coffee strength by adjusting instant coffee granules to suit personal taste preferences.
- Experiment with alternative sweeteners like honey or maple syrup for different flavor profiles.
- Use decaf coffee granules to create a caffeine-free version suitable for evening desserts or sensitive individuals.
- Enhance dairy-free options by substituting heavy cream with coconut cream or almond whipped cream for a vegan-friendly alternative.
