Last night, I had a sweet tooth but the only thing I had in my house was plain, ordinary, boring vanilla ice cream. My roommate disappeared into the kitchen and I sat watching Paula`s Party and the hideous, disgusting Rosie O`Donnell she had on as her main guest.
Suddenly, my roommate pops into the living room with a huge bowl of ice cream and this gorgeous and delicious, sorta kinda custardy sabayon/zabaglione sauce all over it! I was in heaven! And it was so simple and effortless to make, anyone can do it. Here is the recipe:
4 egg yolks
1\4 cup of sugar
1\4 cup of booze (like dark rum, Grand Marnier, etc.)
1\2 tsp. vanilla
He slowly cooked all the ingredients over a low heat, being very very careful not to overcook the eggs and have the damn thing turn out thick and too custard-ish. And that is it!
You can whip this up in ten minutes and serve it over ice cream, berries, crumpets, scones or just slather it all over your body and lick it off! Heaven!
