Preparation time

Cooking time

Serves
Ingredients
200 g good-quality dark chocolat
100 ml strong espresso coffee
200 ml cream
100 g caster sugar
4 egg yolks
Caramel sauce
330 g caster sugar
125 ml water
130 g brown sugar
300 ml cream
To serve
Crumbled Amaretti biscuit, to garnish
Micro mint, optional
Method
- Melt the chocolate with the coffee, cream and sugar in a saucepan on low heat, induction setting 3. Remove from the heat.
- Cool the mixture to room temperature and whisk in the egg yolks. Pour the mixture into 8 lightly greased aluminium moulds.
- Place the moulds into a perforated steam container and cover tightly with foil. Steam at 90°C for 30 minutes, or until budinos have set.
- Remove from the steam oven and allow to cool. Place into the fridge for at least 2 hours to set.
Caramel sauce
- Place the caster sugar and water into a saucepan and stir over low heat, induction setting 3 until the sugar dissolves, approximately 10 minutes.
- Using a wet pastry brush, brush down the sides of the saucepan to dissolve any sugar crystals.
- Once the sugar has dissolved, increase to medium-high heat, induction setting 7, and bring to the boil.
- Reduce the heat to medium heat, induction setting 5 and simmer uncovered, without stirring for 10 minutes, or until the mixture turns a light golden colour. Remove from the heat.
- Using a wooden spoon, stir in the brown sugar, then the cream (careful, it may splutter), until well combined.
- Return to medium heat, induction setting 5 and cook for 2 minutes, or until smooth.
To serve
- Turn the budinos out onto a plate and pour the caramel sauce over the top. Serve with some crumbled amaretti biscuit and micro mint, if using.
