Instructions

Start with coffee whipped ganache

  • Place Callebaut WhiteChocolate (callets) it into a heatproof bowl

  • Squeeze excess water out of the gelatin sheet and whisk it into the hot cream
  • Pour the hot heavy cream gelatin mixture over chocolate, let it stand for a few seconds then whisk until smooth

  • In another bowl beat together eggs with sugar just until incorporated
  • Pour melted butter and chocolate mixture into the egg mixture, mix until combined then sift in the flour, cocoa powder and salt. Fold mixture just until combined, make sure you do not incorporate too much air
