Zabaglione is an Italian custard dessert made by whisking egg yolks, sugar and liqueur. This recipe is for coffee-lovers and tastes great served with dessert biscuits
Ingredients
- 3 large egg yolks
- 2 level tbsp golden caster sugar

- A little grated plain chocolate
- Dessert biscuits, to serve
WEIGHT CONVERTER
Method
- Whisk egg yolks with the sugar and vanilla in a large bowl, using an electric hand-whisk for ease. Whisk in the coffee and liqueur.
- Put the bowl over a pan of hot water and carry on whisking until the mixture is thick and doubled in volume — about 10 mins. Don’t let the water underneath touch the bowl or boil, or the mixture will curdle.
- Pour into glasses, sprinkle with grated chocolate. Serve straight away, with biscuits.
Top Tip for making Coffee liqueur zabaglione
Chill or freeze the unwhisked egg whites for up to 2 months. Use to make meringues.
