Ingredients
4 egg whites
6 tablespoons milk
8 tablespoons granulated sugar
6 tablespoons cocoa drink powder
1 tin table cream, drained
1.5 litres whole milk
4 egg yolks
1 tin condensed milk
6 tablespoons milk
8 tablespoons granulated sugar
6 tablespoons cocoa drink powder
1 tin table cream, drained
1.5 litres whole milk
4 egg yolks
1 tin condensed milk
Where to find ingredients
You can find all ingredients at local supermarkets. Condensed milk and table cream are standard in the baking aisle. If you cannot find table cream, heavy cream is a suitable local alternative.
Preparation method
- In a small bowl, mix the cocoa powder and the 6 tablespoons of milk until you have a smooth paste
- Spread this mixture inside a ring-shaped cake tin and place it in the freezer
- In a saucepan, combine the egg yolks, condensed milk, and 1.5 litres of milk
- Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens
- Remove from heat, let it cool down completely, then process in a blender
- In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites with the sugar until they form stiff peaks, like a meringue
- Gently fold the drained table cream into the whisked egg whites, being careful to maintain the volume
- Combine the two mixtures (the blended base and the meringue-cream mix) by folding gently
- Pour the final mixture into the ring-shaped tin that was in the freezer
- Return to the freezer for about 6 hours, or until completely set
