Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup half & half or light cream
  • 1.50 tbsp sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/4 tsp instant coffee crystals
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 2 tbsp whiskey
  • 1 tbsp rum
  • 1/2 tbsp chocolate syrup
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. In a large heavy-bottomed pan over medium heat, combine half & half, sweetened condensed milk, and instant coffee crystals. Stir until the coffee crystals dissolve.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolk, then gradually add 4-5 ladles of the hot mixture into the egg yolk while whisking.
  3. Return the tempered egg mixture into the hot milk mixture and stir to combine. This tempers the egg, bringing it to temperature without overcooking.
  4. Bring the mixture to a high simmer and cook over medium heat for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Turn off the heat.
  5. Add whiskey, rum, chocolate syrup, and vanilla extract, and stir to combine.
  6. Allow the mixture to cool at room temperature, then cover it with plastic wrap directly over the liquid and chill it in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours or overnight.
  7. Remove the plastic wrap and stir the mixture well. Pour the chilled mixture through a sieve into another pot or container to remove any egg particles or skin.
  8. Transfer to a bottle or container with a lid and keep refrigerated. It stores well in the refrigerator for up to 2 months. Enjoy the Choco-Rum Delight!
