SAEDNEWS: Hot Chocolate Cream is a delicious dessert perfect for cocoa and chocolate lovers. Hot chocolate is a thick, dark brown drink made exclusively with cocoa powder. The darker and more aromatic the cocoa powder, the richer and more authentic the hot chocolate flavor will be.
According to SAEDNEWS, while many people may not enjoy coffee, they often turn to alternatives like tea or hot chocolate when craving a warm beverage. But why stop at just a drink? Hot Chocolate Cream takes the beloved flavors of hot chocolate and transforms them into an irresistible dessert that’s especially enjoyable during colder seasons. In this article, we’ll guide you through preparing this delightful treat at home.
Milk: 3 cups
Hot Chocolate Powder: 2 sachets
Cocoa Powder: 1 tablespoon
Gelatin Powder: 4 tablespoons
Sugar: 3–4 tablespoons
Cold Water: 3/4 cup
Cream: 1/2 pack
1. Prepare the Gelatin:
Sprinkle the gelatin over cold water and let it bloom. Once it swells, place it over a pot of simmering water (double boiler method) and stir until fully dissolved.
2. Heat Milk and Cocoa:
In a saucepan, combine milk, hot chocolate powder, and cocoa powder. Heat the mixture while stirring continuously until everything is fully dissolved.
3. Sweeten the Mixture:
Add sugar to the saucepan and stir until completely dissolved. Remove from heat and add the dissolved gelatin mixture, stirring thoroughly to ensure even consistency.
4. Cool and Mix with Cream:
Let the mixture cool slightly. Once cooled, pour a small amount into the cream and mix well with a fork. Then, add the remaining mixture to the cream and stir until smooth.
5. Mold and Set:
Transfer the mixture into a mold of your choice and place it in the refrigerator for several hours until fully set.
6. Unmold and Serve:
Carefully run a knife around the edges of the mold.
For silicone molds, the dessert usually releases easily without additional steps.
If it sticks, briefly dip the mold in lukewarm water for a few seconds, being cautious not to overheat it.
Lightly moisten the serving plate, invert the mold, and gently release the dessert.
Use high-quality cocoa powder for a richer chocolate flavor.
Lightly wetting the serving plate ensures easier adjustment of the dessert without breaking its shape.
For added flair, garnish with chocolate shavings or a drizzle of melted chocolate.
With its smooth texture and bold cocoa flavor, Hot Chocolate Cream is not only a crowd-pleaser but also an elegant dessert for any occasion. Serve chilled and enjoy every spoonful of this decadent treat!
