Notes
- ** Eating raw or under-cooked eggs can cause food poisoning if not handled properly. I strongly encourage you to use fresh, cold, pasteurized eggs.
- *If you are using alcohol, add 1 tablespoon of dark rum or coffee flavored liquor to the instant espresso. Top each cup with an additional tablespoons before serving.
- You can also use the double boiler method. Heat water in double boiler over medium heat. In a separate bowl whisk together sugar, egg yolks and vanilla. Continuously whisk the mixture while in the double boiler for 3-4 minutes.
- Add mascarpone, continuing to whisk. You have to whisk fast to make sure the egg doesn't set. Scarmaled aren't good in this Italian dessert. LOL.
- If you don't want to mess with raw eggs and making your own custard, feel free to use an instant vanilla pudding.
