1 tablespoon cognac or 1 tablespoon brandy |
80 g semisweet chocolate, chopped |
20 g semisweet chocolate, chopped |
2 tablespoons chopped pistachios |
Directions:
1. Whip egg yolks and sugar until light and foamy.
2. In another bowl, whip whipping cream until stiff peaks form.
3. Add cold espresso and cognac to yolk mixture, mix to combine.
4. Combine whipped cream and yolk mixture; add chopped chocolate, mix.
5. Pour into a freezer-proof dish and cover with cling film. Freeze for 5-6 hours or overnight.
