Coffee Mascarpone Semifreddo
Ingredients
  • 4 large eggs, separated
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons instant dark roast coffee
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1 tablespoon marsala wine
  • 1/4 pinch salt
  • 1 1/4 cups heavy cream
Instructions
1
Collect all necessary components for the recipe.
2
Combine egg yolks, instant dark roast coffee, marsala wine, and sugar in a metal bowl and blend until smooth using a whisk.
3
Place the bowl at the top of a double boiler over gently bubbling water and stir constantly until the mixture thickens and forms visible, thin streaks on its surface that remain for 0.5 to 1 seconds, approximately 10 minutes.
4
If you're feeling adventurous, you can place the bowl directly over medium-low heat and thicken the egg mixture more quickly, but be cautious to avoid scrambling the eggs. This method is slightly faster and takes around 6-7 minutes.
5
Whip egg whites in a glass, metal, or ceramic container until they become light and airy. Gradually add salt and continue to whip until stiff, fluffy peaks form. Set aside.
6
Beat heavy cream in a chilled glass or metal container with an electric mixer until it reaches medium-stiff peaks.
7
Using a spatula, gently fold in the egg yolk mixture until well combined.
8
Add half of the egg whites and fold in until fully incorporated. Then, add the remaining egg whites and continue to fold until the mixture is well combined.
9
Transfer the mixture into small 4-ounce jam jars and close with lids. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
10
Top the frozen mixture with a garnish and indulge!
