Semifreddo is a type of frozen dessert that is similar to ice cream but has a lighter texture. It is typically made with a whipped mixture of eggs, sugar, and cream or custard, then frozen. White chocolate semifreddo is made with melted white chocolate, which gives it a rich, creamy texture and a deliciously sweet flavor.
To make white chocolate semifreddo, you will need:
– 8 ounces of white chocolate, chopped
– 3 large egg yolks
– 1/4 cup of granulated sugar
– 1 cup of whipping cream
Here’s how to make it:
1. Melt the white chocolate in a double boiler or in the microwave, stirring occasionally until it is smooth.
2. In a large bowl, beat the egg yolks and sugar together until they are creamy and pale yellow.
3. Slowly pour the melted white chocolate into the egg mixture, whisking constantly, until it is fully incorporated.
4. In a separate bowl, whip the whipping cream until it forms stiff peaks.
5. Gently fold the whipped cream into the white chocolate mixture until it is fully combined.
6. Pour the mixture into a loaf pan or individual ramekins and cover with plastic wrap. Freeze for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
While the semifreddo is freezing, you can prepare the cocoa sauce. The sauce is made with cocoa powder, sugar, and cream and is the perfect complement to the sweet and creamy white chocolate.
To make the cocoa sauce, you will need:
– 1/3 cup of cocoa powder
– 1/4 cup of granulated sugar
– 1/2 cup of heavy cream
Here’s how to make it:
1. In a small saucepan, whisk together the cocoa powder and sugar.
2. Gradually stir in the heavy cream until the mixture is smooth.
3. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it begins to thicken and comes to a simmer. Remove from heat.
4. Let the sauce cool to room temperature, then serve with the white chocolate semifreddo.
Once the semifreddo is frozen and the cocoa sauce is ready, you can serve the dessert. Simply scoop a portion of the semifreddo onto a plate or in a bowl and drizzle with cocoa sauce. The combination of the sweet, creamy semifreddo and the rich, chocolatey sauce is sure to leave your taste buds wanting more.
