Ingredients

Directions

  1. Dissolve the instant espresso in 1/4 cup of boiling water, then allow it to cool to room temperature.
  2. In a heatproof bowl, whisk together the cooled coffee, 4 egg yolks, and 1/2 cup of sugar until well combined.
  3. Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler), ensuring the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water.
  4. Beat the mixture constantly with an electric mixer or whisk over gentle heat.
  5. Slowly pour in 1/4 cup of rum in a thin, steady stream while continuing to beat.
  6. Continue beating until the mixture becomes thick, pale, and triples in volume, which may take about 10 minutes.
  7. Remove from heat immediately to prevent curdling.
  8. Serve warm by spooning into balloon wine glasses or goblets, or chill for 30 minutes and serve as a sauce over ladyfingers or angel food cake.
