Coffee Bombe (Polish Bombe-Plombiere Kawowa)
- 8 egg yolks
- 1 14 cups sugar
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 12 cup very strong coffee
- 14 cup powdered instant coffee (or more if desired)
- Cream egg yolks with 1 cup sugar until very light and smooth and creamy.
- In a large bowl, whip cream with remaining 1/4 cup sugar until soft peaks form.
- Place the bowl in ice.
- Slowly add the coffee and powdered coffee to the cream, beating constantly.
- Slowly add the egg yolk mixture to the cream mixture, beating constantly.
- When all of the ingredients have been thoroughly blended and mixture is stiff, pour into mold (filling only 3/4 full to allow for expansion).
- Cover with wax paper, adjust the lid so it fits tightly, and either grease the edges or seal with adhesive tape to prevent salt from penetrating the seal.
- Place in a bucket packed with ice and rock salt (1 part salt to every 4 parts ice; ice should be cracked fine) and allow 3-4 hours for freezing.
- When bombe is done, remove mold and wipe carefully before opening to avoid getting salt inside.
- Store leftovers in freezer.
