Where to find ingredients
Sweetened condensed milk, heavy cream, and cocoa powder can be found at local supermarkets in Lusaka or major towns. If unavailable, use a high-quality powdered chocolate drink mix as a substitute. For the heavy cream, use full-fat double cream if the standard canned variety is not stocked.
Preparation method
- In a saucepan, whisk together the condensed milk, whole milk, egg yolks (keeping whites separate), cocoa powder mix, and a few drops of vanilla.
- Place the pan over low heat, stirring continuously until the mixture thickens into a custard base.
- Remove from the heat and allow the chocolate cream to cool slightly.
- Using an electric mixer, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
- Gradually add the sugar to the egg whites, continuing to beat until a glossy meringue is achieved.
- Gently fold the heavy cream into the meringue using a spatula with a slow, bottom-to-top motion.
- Combine the cooled chocolate cream with the meringue and cream mixture, folding gently to maintain a light, airy consistency.
- Pour the preparation into a suitable freezer-safe container.
- Place in the freezer until the dessert is thoroughly firm and frozen.
- Serve the chocolate sorvetão chilled straight from the freezer.
