Ingredients

  • 250 g ricotta drained
  • 4 tbsp cold espresso
  • 3 tsp caster sugar, plus more to taste
  • 2 tsp Cognac
  • 20 g dark chocolate (minimum 70% cocoa solids)

Method

  • Whisk the ricotta in a bowl with the coffee, sugar and the Cognac. Taste and adjust the sweetness as necessary, adding more sugar if you wish.
  • Spoon into small glasses, taking care not to splash it onto the sides of the glass. Use a sharp knife to shave curls of chocolate and scatter them over the top.
  • Keep them in the fridge for up to one day until you are ready to eat them. Serve chilled.
