Ingredients
- 2 cups strong brewed coffee, cooled
- 3 tablespoons coffee liqueur (optional)
- 3 large egg yolks
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup mascarpone cheese
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 24 KIT KAT bars (or about 2 cups crushed)
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder, for dusting
Instructions
- In a shallow dish, combine cooled coffee and coffee liqueur (if using). Set aside.
- In a heatproof bowl, whisk egg yolks and sugar together. Place over a pot of simmering water (double boiler) and whisk constantly until thick and pale, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- In a large bowl, beat mascarpone cheese until smooth. Fold in the egg yolk mixture until combined.
- In a separate bowl, whip heavy cream and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until smooth.
- Line the bottom of a 8x8-inch dish with a layer of KIT KAT bars (about 8 bars, broken to fit if needed). Dip each bar briefly in the coffee mixture (2-3 seconds per side) before placing.
- Spread half of the cream mixture over the KIT KAT layer. Repeat with another layer of dipped KIT KAT bars and remaining cream mixture.
- Dust the top with cocoa powder. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. Before serving, crush a few extra KIT KAT bars and sprinkle on top for garnish.
Tips
- For a stronger coffee flavor, use espresso.
- Refrigerate overnight for best texture.
- Store leftovers covered in the fridge for up to 3 days.
