Gelatin helps thicken this coffee-flavored dessert. Serve in a wine glass topped with whipped topping and chocolate curls.

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons instant espresso coffee powder or regular instant coffee crystals
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon unflavored gelatin
  • 6 egg yolks
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 cups whipping cream or heavy cream
  • Bittersweet chocolate shavings or curls

Directions

  1. In a small bowl, dissolve coffee power in water. Sprinkle gelatin over coffee; let stand for 10 minutes.
  2. In a large metal bowl or the top of a double boiler, beat egg yolks and sugar with a wire whisk until combined. Place over gently boiling water (metal bowl or upper pan should not touch water). Cook, stirring rapidly with a whisk, about 10 minutes or until egg mixture begins to thicken and coats a metal spoon (160 degrees F). Remove from heat.
  3. Add coffee-gelatin mixture to warm egg mixture; whisk until combined. Beat egg-gelatin mixture with an electric mixer on medium speed about 5 minutes or until mixture is cool; set aside.
  4. Thoroughly wash beaters. In a chilled mixing bowl, beat whipping cream with an electric mixer on medium speed until stiff peaks form. Gently fold whipped cream, one-third at a time, into egg-gelatin mixture.
  5. Divide mixture evenly among 8 chilled wine or parfait glasses (or place in a large glass bowl). Cover and chill at least 4 hours. To serve, garnish with chocolate shavings or curls. Makes 8 servings.
