I wanted to make a dessert to serve with Chocolate Biscotti so I decided to try a Zabaglione--which I had never made before. My husband loves Sambuca, so I used it as the liquor in place of the traditional wine. With a biscotto, a sprinkling of pine nuts, and one perfect blackberry, it was a great dessert! —drbabs

Place bowl over simmering water and whisk constantly for about 7-10 minutes, until it thickens and increases in volume.

Take it off the stove, and refrigerate if desired. Spoon into glasses, sprinkle with pine nuts, and serve with a blackberry and biscotto if desired.
