Cappuccino Budino Ingredients

Method

Cappuccino Budino Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Milk Mixture

    In a medium saucepan, combine the whole milk, heavy cream, sugar, and instant coffee granules. Heat over medium heat until the mixture is hot but not boiling, stirring occasionally.

  2. 2

    Mix the Egg Yolks and Cornstarch

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and cornstarch until smooth.

  3. 3

    Combine and Thicken

    Once the milk mixture is hot, slowly pour it into the egg yolk mixture while whisking constantly to temper the eggs. Return the combined mixture to the saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until it thickens and starts to bubble, about 5-7 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add Vanilla and Cocoa

    Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and cocoa powder until well combined.

  5. 5

    Chill the Budino

    Pour the mixture into individual serving cups or a large dish. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the budino chilled, topped with whipped cream and chocolate shavings as desired.
