Servings: 2

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

  1. In a heatproof bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and granulated sugar until well combined.
  2. Add the Marsala wine to the egg mixture and whisk until smooth.
  3. 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.
  4. Continue whisking the mixture vigorously for about 5 minutes, or until it becomes thick and creamy. The mixture should triple in volume.
  5. Remove the bowl from the heat and let it cool slightly while you brew the espresso.
  6. Brew 2 cups of espresso using your preferred method.
  7. Pour half of the zabaglione sauce into each coffee cup.
  8. Carefully pour the hot espresso over the zabaglione sauce in each cup, dividing it evenly.
  9. Top each cup with a generous dollop of whipped cream and dust with cocoa powder for an elegant finish.
  10. Serve immediately and enjoy the delightful combination of flavors!
