Ingredients

• 4 large Egg yolks
• 1/3 cup Granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup Marsala wine
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 cups Fresh mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, etc.)
• 1 tablespoon Mint leaves

Directions

Step 1

Wash and dry the fresh berries, then divide them evenly among 4 dessert glasses or bowls. Set aside.

Step 2

In a medium-sized metal or heatproof glass bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and granulated sugar until the mixture is pale yellow and slightly thickened, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

Add the Marsala wine and vanilla extract to the egg mixture, whisking until well combined.

Step 4

Set the bowl over a saucepan with 1-2 inches of barely simmering water, making sure the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water. This creates a double boiler setup.

Step 5

Whisk the mixture constantly over the simmering water, ensuring you reach all the edges of the bowl to prevent the eggs from scrambling. Continue whisking for about 7-10 minutes, until the mixture thickens and turns silky with a ribbon-like consistency when the whisk is lifted.

Step 6

Remove the bowl from the heat and continue whisking for another minute to slightly cool the zabaglione.

Step 7

Spoon the warm zabaglione over the prepared glasses of fresh berries.

Step 8

Garnish with a sprig of mint leaves for a pop of color and freshness.

Step 9

Serve immediately while the zabaglione is still warm.
