How to Make Olive Garden Zuppa Inglese
- Prepare the ladyfingers: Arrange ladyfingers in a single layer at the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Make the coffee syrup: In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup strong brewed coffee, 1/2 cup amaretto, and 1/4 cup sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Let cool completely.
- Soak the ladyfingers: Gently brush the cooled coffee syrup over the arranged ladyfingers, ensuring they are evenly moistened but not soggy.
- Prepare the custard: In a medium saucepan, whisk together 4 large eggs, 1/2 cup sugar, 1/4 cup cornstarch, a pinch of salt, and 2 cups whole milk. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon (about 8-10 minutes).
- Add the vanilla: Remove from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Layer the custard: Pour half of the custard over the soaked ladyfingers.
- Add chocolate shavings: Sprinkle half of the 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate shavings over the custard layer.
- Repeat layers: Repeat layers with remaining ladyfingers, custard, and chocolate shavings.
- Chill and serve: Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow flavors to meld and the dessert to set.
- Garnish (optional): Before serving, dust with powdered sugar and garnish with additional chocolate shavings or fresh berries.
