Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Egg yolks
- 1/3 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Cocoa powder
- 1 cup Milk
- 2 ounces Dark chocolate (finely chopped)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup Heavy cream
- 1/8 teaspoon Salt
- as needed Whipped cream or marshmallows (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Fill a medium saucepan with about 1 inch of water and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce the heat to low to maintain a gentle simmer.
In a heatproof bowl (preferably stainless steel) that fits snugly over the saucepan, whisk together the egg yolks, granulated sugar, and cocoa powder until smooth and slightly thickened.
Place the bowl over the simmering water, ensuring the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water. Whisk the mixture constantly for about 3-4 minutes or until it begins to thicken and doubles in volume.
Gradually whisk in the milk, a little at a time, ensuring it is fully incorporated before adding more. Continue whisking for 5-7 minutes, or until the mixture thickens and becomes velvety.
Remove the bowl from the heat and whisk in the chopped dark chocolate until fully melted and smooth. Stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream to soft peaks using a hand mixer or whisk. Gently fold the whipped cream into the chocolate zabaglione mixture until fully combined and lightened.
Divide the Hot Chocolate Zabaglione evenly between two serving mugs or glasses.
Garnish with whipped cream or marshmallows, if desired, and serve immediately while warm.
