Easy Cà Phê Trứng Recipe 5 Steps for Perfect Vietnamese Egg Coffee

Print Recipe

A quick and easy recipe for Vietnamese egg coffee featuring a creamy whipped egg yolk foam layered over strong brewed coffee, delivering a rich and comforting drink.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (240 ml) strong coffee or espresso
  • 1 large egg yolk (room temperature)
  • 2 tablespoons sweetened condensed milk
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • Pinch of cinnamon or cocoa powder for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Brew 1 cup (240 ml) of strong coffee or espresso. Keep it hot and fresh.
  2. Separate one large egg yolk from the white. Use room temperature eggs for best whipping results.
  3. In a small bowl, combine the egg yolk with 2 tablespoons of sweetened condensed milk. Add vanilla extract if desired. Whip vigorously with a hand whisk or electric mixer until pale, thick, and creamy with soft peaks.
  4. Pour the hot coffee into a heatproof glass or mug, leaving space at the top for the foam. Gently spoon or pour the whipped egg mixture over the coffee’s surface.
  5. Sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon or cocoa powder on top for aroma and color if desired. Serve immediately while hot.

Notes

Use fresh, room temperature eggs for best whipping results. Do not overwhip the egg mixture to avoid grainy texture. Serve immediately to enjoy the contrast of hot coffee and cool creamy foam. For dairy-free version, substitute sweetened condensed milk with coconut condensed milk or a mix of coconut cream and sugar.
