Recipe FAQ’s

Yes! Just make sure it's strong and fully cooled before mixing it with the milk and eggs. Brewed coffee runs milder than instant, so you may want to trim the milk slightly for a richer profile.

Brioche or challah is the move here — both are thick and soak up the custard without collapsing. And day-old slices are absolute perfection for the best texture.

Bump up the caffeine punch by adding more instant coffee to the mix, or switch to espresso powder. You can also whisk a teaspoon into the whipped cream for an even bigger kick.
