Chocolate Egg Nog Pudding Macchiato with Exotic Seasonings Recipe
- 116 grams semisweet chocolate (3/4 cup)
- 1/16 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
- 1/16 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 4 eggs, separated
- 1/16 teaspoon salt
- 60 grams bourbon (1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons)
- 90 grams sugar (1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon)
- 150 grams condensed milk (1/2 cup), save the rest for the milk froth
- 2 passion fruit purees (sometimes found in Whole Foods frozen food section)
- 8 teaspoons fleur de sel (Maldon is recommended for its flaky texture)
- 475 grams milk (2 cups)
- 160 grams condensed milk (1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon)
- 8 (1- to 1.5-ounce) espresso shots
- Heat the oven 350 degrees F.
- Melt chocolate, nutmeg, and cinnamon over a double boiler.
- Whisk in yolks, salt, and bourbon and set aside to cool.
- Whip whites until frothy.
- Gradually add sugar until soft peaks are formed.
- Fold the egg whites into the chocolate mixture.
- Divide condensed milk among heatproof coffee mugs or ramekins, about 1 tablespoon each.
- Top with 1 teaspoon of passion fruit puree each.
- Pour chocolate mixture over that, about halfway up the cup.
- Bake in the oven until the tops of the puddings are dry to the touch but the chocolate mixture is still slightly jiggly (5 to 10 minutes).
- Once cooled, top off with a pinch of fleur de sel or Maldon salt.
- Once baked, keep cups warm on top of an espresso machine or oven turned on, covered if longer than 4 hours.
- Combine ingredients and heat on the stove to about 180 degrees F.
- Pour one shot of espresso (1 to 1.5 ounces) over each pudding base.
- Using a hand blender, blend condensed milk froth until foamy.
- Spoon froth onto the cups all the way to the top, about 1/3 cup each serving.
- Serve immediately with a teaspoon, which can be used to stir up the mixture into a creamy, messy drink.
