Bonet piemontese
Also known as: Bonèt, Piedmontese bonet
A caramel-lined milk-and-egg pudding with cocoa, coffee and biscuits.
About Bonet piemontese
Piemonte Italia's bonet combines milk and eggs with cocoa, coffee, rum and two kinds of biscuit. This Piedmontese rendition includes both savoiardi and small dry amaretti, finely crumbled into the milk mixture.
Brewed coffee and coffee powder contribute distinct coffee additions alongside the bitter cocoa. Sugar sweetens the pudding and forms the caramel lining, while rum provides the recipe's named liqueur flavour.
The biscuit mixture joins the beaten eggs and cocoa before it is poured into a caramel-coated pudding mould. A water bath surrounds the mould during baking, giving the milk-and-egg dessert its set pudding form.
