Ingredients
6 tablespoons chocolate drink powder
6 tablespoons milk
4 egg yolks
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1.5 liters milk
8 tablespoons sugar
4 egg whites
1 can heavy cream, drained of whey
6 tablespoons milk
4 egg yolks
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
All ingredients can be found in standard grocery stores and supermarkets. For the heavy cream, choose a version without whey or strain it; as a substitute for chocolate drink powder, cocoa powder may be used if adjusted for sweetness.
Preparation method
- In a bowl, mix the chocolate drink powder with the 6 tablespoons of milk until a smooth paste forms.
- Place this mixture into a fluted ring mold and put it in the freezer.
- In a saucepan, add the egg yolks, the sweetened condensed milk, and the 1.5 liters of milk.
- Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens.
- Remove from heat, let it cool completely, and then process in a blender.
- In another bowl, whisk the egg whites with the sugar until stiff peaks form, similar to a meringue.
- Fold the drained heavy cream into the whipped egg whites, mixing gently to maintain the aeration.
- Combine the two creams (the blended mixture and the whipped egg white mixture) and stir gently.
- Pour the combined mixture into the mold that was previously in the freezer.
- Return to the freezer for approximately 6 hours, or until completely set.
