1 tin condensed milk
1 tablespoon butter or margarine
3 tablespoons cocoa powder (or high-quality chocolate powder)
1 tablespoon butter or margarine
3 tablespoons cocoa powder (or high-quality chocolate powder)
Where to find ingredients
Condensed milk and butter are easily available at any local supermarket or neighborhood grocery shop in Nigeria. For the cocoa powder, look for unsweetened cocoa in the baking aisle or specialty grocery stores that stock imported confectionery supplies; avoid pre-mixed chocolate drink powders if you prefer a rich, authentic taste.
Preparation method
- Place the butter in a heavy-based saucepan and melt it over medium heat
- Pour in the condensed milk and stir in the cocoa powder
- Whisk or stir consistently to ensure all ingredients are perfectly blended together
- Keep stirring the mixture steadily until it begins to pull away from the bottom of the pan, which usually takes about 10 to 15 minutes
- Remove from the heat and allow it to cool slightly before serving
