Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Egg yolks
- 100 grams Granulated sugar
- 60 milliliters Amaretto liqueur
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 240 milliliters Heavy cream
- 20 grams Almonds, finely chopped
- 10 grams Powdered sugar (for garnish)
Instructions
Prepare 4 ramekins by wrapping a strip of parchment paper around the outside of each, extending 2-3 centimeters above the rim. Secure the paper with tape or kitchen string to create a collar. This will help the soufflé rise above the edge of the ramekins. Place the prepared ramekins in the freezer to chill while you prepare the mixture.
In a heatproof bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and granulated sugar until the mixture is pale and thick, about 2-3 minutes.
Set the bowl over a saucepan of simmering water, ensuring the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water. Whisk constantly until the mixture is warm to the touch, smooth, and slightly thickened, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat.
Whisk in the amaretto liqueur and vanilla extract until fully incorporated. Set the mixture aside to cool to room temperature.
In a separate large mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream with a hand or stand mixer until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cooled amaretto mixture in three additions, being careful not to deflate the air in the mixture.
Remove the chilled ramekins from the freezer and evenly divide the soufflé mixture among them, filling just slightly above the rims of the ramekins. Smooth the tops with a spatula.
Sprinkle the finely chopped almonds on top of the soufflés for added texture and flavor.
Place the ramekins back in the freezer for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
When ready to serve, remove the parchment collars and dust the tops lightly with powdered sugar for a decorative finish. Serve immediately for a delightful frozen treat.
