| 3 cups | 594g / 20oz | Egg yolks (large) |

| 1 tablespoon | 15ml | Kahlua |
| 2 tablespoons | 30ml | Strong brewed espresso |

| Unsweetened cocoa powder - for dusting | ||
| Accompaniment | ||
| Warm Miniature Doughnuts - see * Note 2 |
* Note 1: If egg safety is a problem in your area, substitute 4 teaspoons dried egg whites (such as Just Whites, available at some supermarkets and by mail order from New York Cake & Baking Distributors, tel. 800-942-2539), reconstituted by stirring 1/4 cup warm water into them as package instructions indicate.
* Note 2: See the "Warm Miniature Doughnuts" recipe which is included in this collection.
In a large metal bowl combine yolks, 2 tablespoons sugar, Kahlua and espresso. Set bowl over a pan of simmering water and with a hand-held electric mixer beat yolk mixture, moving beaters around pan, until mixture triples in volume and (with motor off) falls in thick ribbons from lifted beaters, about 5 minutes. Set bowl in a larger bowl of ice and cold water and cool mixture, stirring gently with a rubber spatula.
In a chilled bowl with cleaned beaters beat cream until it just holds stiff peaks and chill while beating egg whites.
In a bowl with cleaned beaters beat whites until they just hold soft peaks. Add remaining 2 tablespoons sugar and beat until meringue just holds stiff peaks.
Fold cream into yolk mixture and fold in meringue gently but thoroughly. Spoon mixture into six 1/3-cup espresso cups, mounding slightly. Freeze mixture, uncovered, until firm, about 3 hours. Desserts keep in freezer, loosely covered with plastic wrap once hardened, up to 3 days. Dust semifreddo with cocoa powder and serve cups on saucers with Warm Miniature Doughnuts.
This recipe yields 6 servings.
