Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams dark chocolate (70% cocoa)
- 250 grams mascarpone cheese
- 250 milliliters heavy cream
- 50 grams granulated sugar
- 60 milliliters espresso (strongly brewed, cooled)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pinch salt
- whipped cream (for topping, optional)
- dark chocolate shavings (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
Chop the dark chocolate into small pieces and set aside.
In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream, granulated sugar, and salt over medium heat. Stir gently until the sugar dissolves, and the mixture begins to steam (do not let it boil).
Remove the saucepan from the heat and immediately add the chopped chocolate. Stir until the chocolate melts completely and the mixture is smooth.
Stir in the brewed espresso and vanilla extract. Allow the mixture to cool slightly for 5 minutes.
In a medium mixing bowl, use a whisk or spatula to gently fold the mascarpone cheese into the cooled chocolate mixture until fully combined and smooth.
Divide the pudding mixture evenly among 4 serving glasses or bowls. Cover with plastic wrap, ensuring the wrap touches the surface of the pudding to prevent a skin from forming.
Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until set.
Before serving, top with a dollop of whipped cream and garnish with dark chocolate shavings, if desired.
Enjoy your decadent Chocolate Mascarpone Pudding!
