3 eggs (separated) |
4 ounces caster sugar |
4 ounces coffee (hot, black & made with 2 teaspoons instant coffee) |
4 ounces gelatin powder |
2 -3 tablespoons irish whiskey or 2 -3 tablespoons irish mist liqueur |
5 ounces double cream (lightly whipped) |
whipping cream (for hollowed centre) |
2 ounces walnuts (crushed) |
Directions:
1. Bring a med-sized pan half filled w/water to a boil & line the sides of a soufflé dish (inside) w/greaseproof or parchment paper so the paper comes at least 2 in above the rim of the dish.
2. In a lrg mixing bowl, cream together the egg yolks w/the sugar using a wooden spoon.
3. Dissolve gelatin in the hot (but not boiling) coffee & add to the yolk mixture, beating well.
4. Place the mixing bowl over the pan of boiling water & cont beating till mixture begins to thicken. Remove from heat & allow to cool a little. Then place in the fridge for a little while till the mixture starts to set.
5. Beat egg whites till stiff.
6. Fold the cream into the egg yolk mixture. Add the alcohol & mix well.
7. Fold in the egg whites & transfer to the soufflé dish lined w/greaseproof paper.
