Where to find ingredients
Find dairy products, eggs, and cocoa powder drink mix at local grocery stores or general markets. If table cream is unavailable, high-fat heavy cream is a suitable substitute.
Preparation method
- In a small bowl, whisk the cocoa powder drink mix with the 6 tablespoons of milk until you have a smooth, thick paste.
- Spread this chocolate paste evenly inside a ring mold and place it in the freezer to set.
- In a saucepan, combine the egg yolks, condensed milk, and the 1.5 liters of milk.
- Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.
- Remove from the heat, allow it to cool completely, and then pulse in a blender for a smooth consistency.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites with the sugar until they form stiff, glossy peaks.
- Gently fold the drained table cream into the whipped egg whites, taking care to maintain the aeration.
- Carefully combine the cooled blender mixture with the egg white and cream mixture, folding gently to keep the texture light.
- Pour the combined cream mixture into the prepared ring mold already chilling in the freezer.
- Return to the freezer for approximately 6 hours, or until the ice cream is set and firm.
