Ingredients (serves 4):
250 ml oat milk (or other plant-based milk)
100 ml strong coffee (espresso or moka)
40 g brown sugar (or agave syrup)
20 g cornstarch (cornflour)
1 cinnamon stick
1 star anise
½ teaspoon whole tri-color peppercorns
80 g dark chocolate (at least 70%)
1 tablespoon oat milk (for the melted chocolate)
Instructions:
Infuse the coffee: Brew the coffee (espresso or moka) and pour it into a small saucepan. Add the cinnamon stick, star anise, and whole tri-color peppercorns. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Strain the coffee to remove the spices.
Prepare the cream: In a small bowl, dissolve the cornstarch in 2 tablespoons of oat milk, mixing well to avoid lumps.
Cook the cream: In a saucepan, heat the oat milk with the sugar and the spiced coffee. Once warm, add the dissolved cornstarch and whisk continuously. Cook over medium-low heat until the cream thickens (about 5 minutes).
Melt the chocolate: Melt the dark chocolate using a bain-marie (double boiler) or microwave, adding 1 tablespoon of oat milk for a smooth consistency.
Serve: Pour the coffee cream into serving cups and top with the melted chocolate. Garnish with a cinnamon stick or a few whole peppercorns for a decorative touch.
✨ Tip: For a lighter, fluffier texture, let the cream cool in the fridge for an hour, then whip it gently before serving.
Enjoy your dessert! ☕🍫💚
