Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons Gelatin powder
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 1 cup Milk
- 1.5 tablespoons Instant coffee granules
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 4 large Egg yolks
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin powder over the water and let it sit for about 5 minutes to bloom.
In a medium saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until it begins to steam, but do not let it boil.
Add the instant coffee granules to the milk and stir until fully dissolved.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and egg yolks until the mixture is pale and thick.
Gradually pour the hot coffee-infused milk into the egg mixture, whisking constantly to temper the eggs and prevent curdling.
Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until it thickens slightly and coats the back of the spoon, about 3-5 minutes. Be careful not to let it boil.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the bloomed gelatin until fully dissolved.
Let the custard cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally to prevent a skin from forming.
In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream until it forms stiff peaks.
Gently fold the whipped cream and vanilla extract into the cooled custard until fully incorporated and smooth.
Pour the mixture into individual serving dishes or a single large serving bowl. Smooth the top with a spatula if necessary.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until the cream is fully set.
Serve chilled, garnished with whipped cream, chocolate shavings, or a dusting of cocoa powder if desired.
