Homemade Advocaat in Chocolate Cups
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 6 egg yolks
- 150g of powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 200ml of brandy
- 200ml of heavy cream
- 200g of dark chocolate
Instructions
- In a heatproof bowl, whisk together 6 egg yolks and 150g of powdered sugar until pale and creamy.
- Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water, making sure the bottom of the bowl doesn't touch the water. Continue whisking while slowly adding 200ml of brandy. Cook for about 10 minutes, or until the mixture thickens. Remove from heat and let it cool completely.
- Once the advocaat mixture has cooled, whip 200ml of heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the advocaat mixture until well combined. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- Melt 200g of dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water. Once melted, remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
- Using a pastry brush, coat the inside of 6 small silicone cupcake molds with the melted chocolate, making sure to cover the bottom and sides evenly. Place the molds in the refrigerator for 10 minutes to set.
- Repeat the process of coating the molds with another layer of melted chocolate, then refrigerate for another 10 minutes to set.
- Carefully remove the chocolate cups from the molds and fill each cup with the prepared advocaat mixture.
- Serve the homemade advocaat in chocolate cups immediately and enjoy!
Homemade Advocaat, a traditional Dutch egg-based liqueur, has a rich history dating back to the 17th century. Served in a chocolate cup, this indulgent treat offers a delightful combination of creamy sweetness and decadent chocolate. Renowned chefs in the Netherlands, such as Jonnie Boer and Sergio Herman, have elevated this classic recipe by infusing it with their own unique twists. The best version of this dish can be found in quaint cafes and patisseries in Amsterdam, where skilled artisans meticulously craft the chocolate cups and blend the velvety Advocaat. To achieve the perfect balance, it's crucial to use high-quality chocolate and fresh, free-range eggs. For a unique twist, consider adding a hint of orange zest or a splash of rum to the Advocaat mixture.
