Where to find ingredients
Find fresh dairy, eggs, and tinned goods at local supermarkets or neighborhood 'kirana' stores. Use full-fat milk for better creaminess; thick cream (or 'malai' style heavy cream) can be found in the refrigerated section of most large grocers.
Preparation method
- In a small bowl, whisk the chocolate drink powder with the 6 tablespoons of milk until you reach a smooth, thick paste.
- Spread this chocolate paste evenly into a bundt pan (ring mold) and place it in the freezer.
- In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, whisk together the egg yolks, condensed milk, and the 1.5 liters of milk.
- Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens slightly and coats the back of a spoon.
- Remove the pan from the heat, allow it to cool down completely, then process the mixture in a blender until smooth.
- In a separate clean bowl, whip the egg whites with the sugar until stiff peaks form, similar to a meringue.
- Gently fold the thick cream into the whipped egg whites, being careful to maintain the airy texture.
- Combine the blended yolk mixture with the whipped cream and egg white mixture, folding them together gently until incorporated.
- Carefully pour this combined mixture into the ring mold containing the frozen chocolate layer.
- Return the mold to the freezer for at least 6 hours, or until the ice cream is completely set and firm.
