Steps:
- Oil and line a 1-litre loaf tin with cling film. Put the coffee, Tia Maria or brandy, egg yolks and sugar in a bowl and stir to dissolve the coffee. Put the egg whites in a large bowl and pour the cream in another.
- Beat the egg whites until stiff with an electric whisk, then quickly beat the egg yolk mixture until thick and leaving a trail. Now beat the cream until it holds its shape. If you beat everything in this order, you don't need to wash the whisks in between.
- Fold the cream into the coffee mixture, then carefully fold in the whites. Fold through the Toblerone and tip into the loaf tin. Lightly cover the surface with cling film. When frozen, overwrap in foil and freeze. Will keep for up to 6 weeks. You can make the chocolate curls (see video link, above, for instructions) and keep them in a airtight container or freeze.
- To serve, unwrap and turn onto a platter. Strip off the cling film and serve topped with the chocolate curls.

COFFEE SEMIFREDDO
Semifreddo is a classic Italian dessert (semifreddo al caffè) that is as beautiful to look at as it tastes. You can skip the nuts for a nut-free version. Serve the semifreddo with whipped cream, cocoa powder or grated chocolate, and cookie crumbs.

Steps:
- Combine coffee and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally so sugar does not stick to the bottom of the pan. Remove from heat.
- Whisk egg yolks in a heatproof bowl until frothy. Add sweetened coffee 1 tablespoon at a time, whisking vigorously to prevent egg yolks from curdling.
- Place bowl on top of a pot with simmering water, making sure the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water. Continue whisking vigorously until mixture thickens and gets creamy, 4 to 6 minutes.
- Remove bowl from heat and place over a bowl of ice; whisk until cooled. Fold in mascarpone cheese.
- Beat cream in a chilled glass or metal bowl with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Stir 2 tablespoons of whipped cream into the coffee mixture to thin it out. Fold in remaining cream carefully with a spatula until just combined. Fold in walnuts.
- Pour mixture into 4 serving or ice cream glasses and freeze until firm, at least 5 hours.

Steps:
- In a bowl, beat whipping cream until soft peaks form, 2 to 3 minutes. In a second bowl, beat egg whites, adding sugar 1 tablespoon at a time, until fluffy and glossy, 3 to 4 minutes. In a microwave-safe bowl, stir together caramel sauce and salt; nuke until warm, 15 to 30 seconds. Gently fold whipped cream and caramel sauce into egg-white mixture; cover and freeze until solid, 4 to 6 hours. In a small saucepan over low heat, heat half-and-half, chocolate and corn syrup, stirring, until smooth and viscous, 2 to 3 minutes. Divide semifreddo and hot fudge among 6 bowls.
MOCHA SEMIFREDDO
A massively underrated summer dessert, semifreddo has a rich taste, and you get what's basically an airy, custard-style ice cream without having to use a machine. However, it all comes at a cost. The classic procedure is a little bothersome, since you need to make three separate components - a zabaione, a meringue, and whipped cream - so, I decided to simply use the eggs whole, and make a 'zabaringue.' I knew I wouldn't get as much volume, but I didn't care.

Steps:
- Whisk eggs, sugar, coffee-flavored liqueur, instant coffee, and 1 teaspoon cocoa powder together in a metal bowl.
- Place bowl over low heat on the stove (holding bowl with a dishtowel) and continue whisking until mixture thickens, 4 to 6 minutes. Whisk continually to prevent eggs from scrambling. Remove bowl from heat and let mixture cool completely. (You can set the bowl on ice water to speed this up.)
- Whisk ice-cold heavy cream and sugar together in a chilled bowl until stiff peaks form, 3 to 4 minutes. Add cooled egg-coffee mixture to the whipped cream. Stir with a spatula until just combined.
- Transfer mixture to serving cups. Wrap cups in plastic wrap and freeze until firm, 8 hours or overnight. Garnish with whipped cream and a dusting of cocoa powder.

CREAM WITH COFFEE AND CHOCOLATE (EGGLESS SEMIFREDDO)
Delicately elegant, similar to a real semifreddo but quickly and easily made. Eggless for those not liking to use uncooked fresh eggs in a cold dessert. (That would be me!) Flavor with rum, Amaretto, or your personal choice. The Italians like semifreddo desserts cold, not frozen because the flavor is more apparent. This dessert comes from the elegant Caffe Greco in Rome and was in my files of "Olde" recipes!

COFFEE SHOP FUDGE
This coffee fudge recipe is one that my son, Jackson, and I worked on together. After several efforts, we decided this version was a winner. It is smooth, creamy and has an irresistible crunch from pecans. The coffee and cinnamon blend nicely to provide subtle flavor. -Beth Osborne Skinner, Bristol, Tennessee
