CHOCOLATE COFFEE SEMIFREDDO (ICE CREAM)
I made this dessert for a dinner party.. it was a hit! I was actually surprised with myself that I made Semifreddo, you know ice cream at home without an ice cream maker.. I thought it was almost impossible to achieve such great texture and taste.. beautiful and versatile dessert.

Steps:
- 1. -Line a loaf tin with clingfilm. -Chop the chocolate bar into small-medium size chunks, set aside. -Put the coffee, liqueur, egg, egg yolks and sugar in a heat proof bowl and mix to dissolve. -Beat the mixture over a saucepan of gently simmering water, until it is pale and thick. (I use a whisk for this, but you can use a hand-held electric whisk)
- 2. -In a bowl, whip the double cream until thick. -Gently fold in the egg and sugar mixture. -Add the chopped chocolate bar to the mixture. -Pour into the prepared loaf tin, and cover carefully with clingfilm before putting it in the freezer for at least 2-3 hours (I always make it the night before)
- 3. -When ready to serve, turn out the semifreddo on to a suitably sized CHILLED plate. (better to put the plate in the freezer for few minutes or else the semifreddo will start melting the minute it hits the plate) -Decorate with cocoa powder, chocolate shavings, nuts, chocolate chunks, coffee beans etc. whatever you like.

[email protected]I followed the recipe exactly, but my semifreddo turned out icy and grainy. I'm not sure what went wrong.
