Ingredients

  • 2 egg yolks
  • 1 tbsp condensed milk (or honey)
  • 2 shots Vietnamese coffee (or Espresso, 60ml)
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract (or Rum liquor)

Instructions

  • Combine egg yolks, condensed milk, and vanilla extract in a mug or glass. Place the mug in a bowl of hot water. This tip will help reduce the eggy smell and pasteurize the eggs.
  • Use a hand mixer with a whisk to beat the egg yolk until it turns pale yellow and creamy.
  • To check readiness, drop some egg cream into water; if it floats, it's ready.
  • Pour the egg cream onto the coffee, sprinkle cocoa powder on top.
  • Enjoy the hot coffee; the eggy smell may develop as it cools.
