  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 cups mascarpone cheese
  • 2 tbsp heavy cream
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • Chocolate syrup
  • Crushed vanilla cookies and semi-sweet chocolate curls for topping
  • Barely-sweetened whipped cream
  • Cocoa powder

Instructions

  1. 1
    Whisk yolks and sugar in a stainless steel bowl until light and creamy.
  2. 2
    Place the bowl on top of a pot of 1 inch simmering water to create a double boiler.
  3. 3
    Whisk yolks non-stop, until warmed, thickened, and falling off the whisk in ribbons. Set aside until needed.
  4. 4
    Fold together egg yolks, mascarpone, cream, and vanilla.
