Ingredients
  

  • 4 Egg yolks
  • 40 g Sugar
  • 8 tablespoon dark rum
  • 100 ml Cocoa drink
  • 20 g Cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • Cookies or chocolate sticks for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Separate the yolks from the whites and place the 4 egg yolks in a heatproof mixing bowl.
  • Weigh out the sugar and add it to the egg yolks. Beat the egg yolks and sugar until it's foamy.
  • Continue beating the egg-sugar mixture over a warm water bath until the mixture looks creamy and yellowish.
  • Quickly add the rum, cocoa drink, cinnamon and cocoa powder to the egg-sugar mixture and stir until it reaches a homogeneous texture. No lumps should form.
  • Remove the cream from the water bath and stir over an ice bath until cold.
  • When the cream has cooled down it can be poured into glasses and is ready to serve.

Notes

  • The water bath must not be too hot or the egg will curdle.
  • For the ice bath, I use a wok filled with ice or fill cold water in the wok and put a coooling pack in it. Then I put the mixing bowl into the ice/cold water.
  • The dessert is stirred in the ice bath until it cools down.
  • The zabaglione collapses relatively quickly. It should be served quickly.
