Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams Mascarpone cheese
- 120 ml Heavy cream (cold)
- 2 teaspoons Instant coffee powder
- 2 tablespoons Hot water
- 50 grams Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 20 grams Dark chocolate (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
In a small bowl, mix the instant coffee powder with hot water until fully dissolved. Set it aside to cool.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mascarpone cheese and granulated sugar. Mix gently with a spatula or whisk until the sugar is fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth.
Add the cooled coffee mixture and vanilla extract into the mascarpone mixture. Stir until the flavors are well blended.
In a separate chilled bowl, whip the cold heavy cream using a hand mixer or whisk until soft peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture in three batches. Use a spatula and fold carefully to maintain the light and airy texture of the mixture.
Once combined, taste and adjust the sweetness or coffee intensity, if needed.
Spoon the mixture evenly into serving glasses or bowls and smooth out the tops with the back of a spoon.
Optional: Grate or shave some dark chocolate over the top for garnish.
Chill the dessert in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the texture to firm up.
Serve chilled and enjoy your elegant Black Coffee Mascarpone dessert!
