Whisk 2 Eggs with Coffee

Instructions

Step 1: Brew the Coffee

• Prepare 1/2 cup of strong coffee and let it cool to room temperature.
• If you like a sweeter dessert, dissolve 1 tablespoon of sugar in the coffee while it’s still hot.

Step 2: Whisk the Egg Whites

• In a clean, dry bowl, whisk the egg whites until they form stiff peaks. You can use a hand or stand mixer for faster results.
• Gradually add 1–2 tablespoons of sugar while whisking to stabilize the whites and enhance sweetness.

Step 3: Prepare the Egg Yolks

• In another bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the cooled coffee until smooth and well combined.

Step 4: Combine the Mixtures

• Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the yolk-coffee mixture. Use a spatula and fold carefully to keep the mixture light and airy.

Step 5: Chill and Serve

• Divide the mixture into serving glasses or bowls.
• Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to set and enhance the flavors.
• Garnish with cocoa powder or grated chocolate before serving.
