6 tablespoons milk
4 egg yolks
1 can condensed milk
1.5 liters milk
8 tablespoons sugar
4 egg whites
1 can heavy cream, drained of whey

1 can condensed milk
1.5 liters milk
8 tablespoons sugar
4 egg whites
1 can heavy cream, drained of whey
Where to find ingredients
You can find all these ingredients at local grocery stores or supermarkets. As a substitute for chocolate drink powder, cocoa powder mixed with a little extra sugar can be used, though the original result is best.
Preparation method
- In a bowl, mix the chocolate powder with the 6 tablespoons of milk until a smooth paste forms
- Spread this mixture into a center-hole mold and place it in the freezer
- In a saucepan, combine the egg yolks, condensed milk, and 1.5 liters of milk
- Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens
- Remove from heat, let it cool completely, then blend in a blender
- In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites with the sugar until they form firm, meringue-like peaks
- Fold the drained heavy cream into the whipped egg whites, mixing gently to maintain the aeration
- Combine the two creams (the blender-mixed base and the whipped egg white mixture) and stir gently
- Pour the final mixture into the mold already chilling in the freezer
- Return to the freezer for approximately 6 hours, or until firm
