Ingredients
- 1/4 cup half & half or light cream
- 1/4 of a 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 teaspoon instant coffee crystals
- 1 large egg yolk
- 1 oz whiskey
- 1/3 oz rum
- 1/2 teaspoon chocolate syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- 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.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolk and gradually add 4-5 ladles of the hot mixture into the egg yolk while whisking. Return the tempered egg mixture into the hot milk mixture and stir to combine.
- Bring the mixture to a high simmer and cook over medium heat for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Turn off the heat.
- Add whiskey, rum, chocolate syrup, and vanilla extract and stir to combine.
- Allow the mixture to cool at room temperature. Cover with plastic wrap directly over the liquid and chill in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours, preferably overnight.
- 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 that may have formed while cooling.
- Transfer to a glass and enjoy!
