Easy homemade chocolate ice cream cake (Sorvetão de chocolate)

Ingredients

6 eggs
6 tablespoons chocolate drink powder
1 can (approx. 395g) sweetened condensed milk
1 can (measured using the empty condensed milk can) whole milk
A few drops vanilla extract
3 tablespoons sugar
1 can (approx. 300g) table cream, drained of whey

Where to find ingredients

You can find these staples at local markets and grocery stores. Look for canned condensed milk and table cream (creme de leite) in the baking or international aisles. Use standard fresh eggs and high-quality chocolate drink powder available at any neighborhood supermarket.

Preparation method

  1. In a saucepan, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, the measured whole milk, the egg yolks (keeping the whites aside), the chocolate powder, and a few drops of vanilla extract.
  2. Place the saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens into a smooth cream.
  3. Remove the pan from the heat and set the chocolate custard aside to cool.
  4. Using an electric mixer, whisk the egg whites until they reach stiff peaks.
  5. Gradually add the sugar to the whipped egg whites, continuing to mix until a glossy meringue forms.
  6. Gently fold the table cream into the meringue using a spatula, employing a delicate bottom-to-top motion.
  7. Carefully combine the cooled chocolate custard with the meringue and cream mixture, folding gently to maintain a light, airy consistency.
  8. Pour the mixture into a suitable container for freezing.
  9. Place in the freezer until completely set and firm.
  10. Serve the Sorvetão de Chocolate chilled directly from the freezer.
