Mascarpone and Coffee Cups

Serves: 6

Print this Recipe

(Coppa di Mascarpone al Caffè)
Category: Spoon Desserts
Though mascarpone is typically made in Lombardy, it is often used in Venetian desserts. This one blends coffee and flavorings into mascarpone and cream, with chopped chocolate for texture. It is similar to tiramisù, which is also from the Veneto, though it does not contain cookies.
You don't need any fancy equipment to make espresso for this dessert or any of the others in this book. An ordinary drip coffee maker can be used, or even instant espresso.


   1/3 cup hot strong brewed espresso
   1/4 cup sugar
   1/4 cup cognac or rum
   1/2 cup (4 ounces) mascarpone, at room temperature
   1 cup heavy or whipping cream
   1/2 cup chopped semisweet baking chocolate, (about 2 ounces)


1 At least 20 minutes before you are ready to make the dessert, place a medium bowl and the beaters of an electric mixer in the refrigerator. Combine the espresso and sugar. Stir until the sugar is dissolved. Stir in the cognac. Let cool to room temperature.

2 In a large bowl, whisk the mascarpone and coffee together until smooth. Remove the bowl and beaters from the refrigerator. Pour the cream into the bowl and whip the cream at high speed until it holds its shape softly when the beaters are lifted, about 4 minutes.

3 With a flexible spatula, gently fold the cream into the mascarpone mixture. Set aside 2 tablespoons of the chocolate for garnish, and fold the remaining chocolate into the mascarpone.

4 Spoon the mixture into six goblets. Sprinkle with the reserved chocolate. Cover and chill 1 hour up to overnight.
