1 can sweetened 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 these staples at local supermarkets. Look for full-fat sweetened condensed milk and heavy cream in the baking or dairy aisles. If you cannot find high-fat heavy cream, a high-quality thick cream substitute is recommended.
Preparation method
- In a small bowl, whisk the cocoa powder drink mix with the 6 tablespoons of milk until you have a smooth, uniform paste.
- Spread this mixture evenly into a ring mold and place it in the freezer.
- In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the egg yolks, sweetened condensed milk, and the 1.5 liters of milk.
- Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens into a custard-like consistency.
- Remove from the heat, allow it to cool completely, and then blend until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites with the sugar until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the heavy cream into the whipped egg whites, taking care not to deflate the mixture.
- Combine the custard base with the whipped egg white mixture, stirring gently until fully incorporated.
- Pour the combined mixture into the chilled ring mold you prepared earlier.
- Return to the freezer for approximately 6 hours, or until the ice cream is set and firm.
