Ingredients
- Egg yolks
- 4 large
- Granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup
- Marsala wine
- 1/2 cup
- Espresso
- 2 cups, freshly brewed
- Whipped cream
- 1 cup, for topping
- Cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon, for dusting
Instructions
- In a heatproof bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and granulated sugar until well combined.
- Add the Marsala wine to the egg mixture and whisk until smooth.
- Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water, ensuring that the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water. This creates a gentle heat for the zabaglione.
- Continue whisking the mixture vigorously for about 5 minutes, or until it becomes thick and creamy. The mixture should triple in volume.
- Remove the bowl from the heat and let it cool slightly while you brew the espresso.
- Brew 2 cups of espresso using your preferred method.
- Pour half of the zabaglione sauce into each coffee cup.
- Carefully pour the hot espresso over the zabaglione sauce in each cup, dividing it evenly.
- Top each cup with a generous dollop of whipped cream and dust with cocoa powder for an elegant finish.
- Serve immediately and enjoy the delightful combination of flavors!
Tips
- For an extra touch of flavor, you can add a splash of vanilla extract to the zabaglione mixture.
- If you prefer a non-alcoholic version, substitute the Marsala wine with a sweet grape juice or non-alcoholic wine.
