Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large Egg yolk
- 2 tablespoons Sweetened condensed milk
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 6 ounces Hot brewed coffee
- 1 teaspoon Sugar
Instructions
Begin by brewing a fresh, strong cup of coffee using your preferred method, ensuring about 6 ounces of hot coffee per serving. Set aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine 1 large egg yolk, 2 tablespoons of sweetened condensed milk, 0.5 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 1 teaspoon of sugar.
Using a hand mixer or a whisk, beat the egg mixture vigorously until it becomes frothy and creamy, developing a light and airy texture. This should take about 3-5 minutes.
Gently pour the hot brewed coffee into a small cup or coffee mug, filling it about two-thirds full.
Carefully spoon the whipped egg mixture over the surface of the hot coffee, covering it completely.
Serve immediately, allowing the coffee's heat to gently set the egg topping. Optionally, stir before sipping to mix the layers, or enjoy the rich contrast as-is.
