The Best and Most Delicious Chocolate Dessert with an Easy and Quick Recipe – A Must-Try!

According to Saed News’ culinary section, chocolate dessert is one of the most popular and delicious treats, made from a blend of cocoa milk, chocolate bars, cream, and cocoa powder.

Desserts are among the most beloved and diverse foods worldwide. They are a staple at parties and a highlight on restaurant menus, usually served after meals, as their sweetness aids digestion and provides a pleasant treat alongside tea or coffee.

Desserts come in many flavors—vanilla, fruit, saffron, chocolate, and more—each with its own dedicated fans. Chocolate dessert, in particular, is immensely popular due to its rich and indulgent flavor. Made from cocoa milk, chocolate, sugar, cream, and gelatin powder, it is smooth, delicate, and can be prepared easily at home in a short time.

Preparation:

1. Mix gelatin powder with 3 tablespoons of cold water and melt it using a double boiler until it becomes clear.

2. In a pot, combine cocoa milk, cocoa powder, sugar, and vanilla. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is hot and slightly steaming. Avoid boiling.

3. Once steaming, remove from heat and add the chocolate bar at room temperature, letting it slowly melt.

4. Pour a ladle of the dessert mixture into the cream and stir until fully incorporated, then add it back into the pot.

5. Add the dissolved gelatin and stir until smooth. Strain the mixture to remove impurities.

6. Pour the mixture into the desired mold and refrigerate for 5 hours until set.

Serving Tips:

• Remove the dessert from the refrigerator and let it sit for 5 minutes before unmolding.

• Run a sharp knife around the edges to release it from the mold. Silicone molds are easiest, while metal, plastic, or cast iron molds may require a brief immersion in hot water.

• Avoid leaving the mold in hot water too long, as this may cause the dessert to lose its shape.

Important Notes:

1. Gelatin is colorless and tasteless, derived from animal collagen. Always dissolve gelatin using the double boiler method. Avoid high temperatures to prevent unpleasant odors. One tablespoon of gelatin powder equals four gelatin sheets. Store gelatin in a sealed, cool, dry place, and use within 6 months of opening.

2. For a sweeter taste, use sweet chocolate bars. If you prefer less sweetness, opt for dark chocolate, as the dessert mixture already contains sugar.

This chocolate dessert offers a perfect combination of taste, texture, and ease of preparation, making it a must-try for travelers and culinary enthusiasts looking to explore Iranian-inspired sweet treats at home or in local cafes.
