Submitted by EmmyDuckie

"A collaborative effort by the Babes in Zaarland 'Zaar World Tour team, using our very favorite Italian dessert flavors, espresso, mascarpone, cinnamon, nuts, liqueurs, and of course, chocolate. This is proof that too many cooks don't spoil the dish, as long as all those cooks have a sweet tooth for Italian desserts!"

4. combine mascarpone, cinnamon, and enough cream to give it a whipped cream consistency, sweeten to taste; set aside.
5. Line 6 small bowls with oiled plastic wrap, with as few wrinkles as you can manage.
6. Melt chocolate in a double boiler, over a slow simmer.
7. Use as low a heat as you can to avoid taking the chocolate out of temper.
8. Pour chocolate into lined bowls, and tilt to cover all sides with a sturdy layer.
9. Refrigerate until ready to use.
10. When ready to serve turn chocolate out of bowl, remove plastic wrap and place on a pretty plate.
11. Freeze gelato in ice cream maker to manufacturers instructions.
12. Make sure it is very cold going in, so the texture will be dense and creamy.
13. Freeze gelato until firm enough to scoop. If you have a small machine, you may need to do this in two batches.
14. Warm nutella in a double boiler, until it has the consistency of hot fudge.
15. To serve, place a generous scoop of gelato into a chocolate bowl, drizzle with warm nutella, top with cinnamon mascarpone cream, and sprinkle with pistachios.

I haven't tried this recipe so I'm not rating it, but I just wanted to say that you can easily make chocolate bowls by dipping paper or silicon muffin cups in chocolate and letting them harden, then just peel off the muffin cup. I usually dip once, let harden, then dip again.

I agree with wath others said, taste is great, but the consistency isn't great. I think you would need too make a custard with coffee taste and then freeze it. But as said, the taste is really good! Made for ZWT4.

I loved the creaminess of this gelato. Why buy gelato if we can do our own. And this one is perfect. I loved the taste of espresso and amaretto (which I added at the end when the ice cream was almost ready). All the ingredients are made to be together. This is pure heaven. Thanks Babes. Good luck! Made for the Babes of ZWT4.
