espresso

🥗Healthier: decaf coffee

💰Cheaper: instant coffee

Decaf coffee allows for caffeine-free enjoyment, while instant coffee is often less expensive.

Make an espresso shot using your favorite coffee beans or use store-bought espresso.

In a bowl, combine egg yolks and granulated sugar.

In a saucepan, heat whole milk over medium heat until it reaches a soft boil with steam and slight bubbles.

Slowly add the hot milk to the egg yolk mixture in a fine stream while whisking constantly to temper the eggs.

Once most of the milk is combined, return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over medium to low heat until it thickens slightly.

Remove from heat and add cold whipping cream to the mixture.

Strain the mixture through a fine strainer to remove any lumps.

Add the espresso to the mixture and whisk to combine.

Let the mixture chill completely in the refrigerator for about 2-3 hours before churning in an ice cream maker.
