Where to find ingredients
You can find all ingredients at local supermarkets, typically in the baking supplies or dairy aisles. Condensed milk and table cream are staples found in the long-life dairy section. If you cannot find table cream, heavy cream is a suitable substitute.
Preparation method
- In a saucepan, combine the condensed milk, whole milk, the egg yolks (setting the whites aside), chocolate drink powder, and a few drops of vanilla essence.
- Place the saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens into a smooth custard.
- Remove the custard from the heat and set aside to cool.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
- Gradually add the sugar to the egg whites while continuing to beat until a glossy meringue is formed.
- Gently fold the drained table cream into the meringue using a spatula, employing a careful bottom-to-top motion.
- Combine the cooled chocolate custard with the meringue mixture, stirring softly to ensure it is thoroughly incorporated.
- Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container.
- Place in the freezer and chill until completely firm and frozen.
- Serve the chocolate sorvetão while still thoroughly chilled.
