Indulge in Chocolate Heaven with Natillas de Chocolate con Mambo

Are you a chocolate lover? If so, you’re in for a treat! Natillas de Chocolate con Mambo is a delicious Spanish dessert that will satisfy your sweet tooth and leave you wanting more. Made with rich, creamy chocolate custard and topped with a sprinkle of cocoa powder, this dessert is a chocolate lover’s dream come true.

Ingredients:

1 liter of milk

200 grams of sugar

100 grams of dark chocolate

40 grams of cornstarch

4 egg yolks

1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

Cocoa powder for dusting

Preparation:

In a saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until it reaches a gentle simmer. Temperature: medium heat.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar, cornstarch, and egg yolks until well combined.

Add the dark chocolate to the simmering milk and stir until melted. Temperature: medium heat.

Slowly pour the chocolate milk into the bowl with the sugar mixture, whisking constantly to prevent lumps from forming.

Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens and coats the back of a spoon. Temperature: low heat. This should take about 10-15 minutes.

Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Let the mixture cool for a few minutes.

Once cooled slightly, pour the chocolate custard into individual serving dishes or ramekins.

Cover the dishes with plastic wrap, making sure the wrap touches the surface of the custard to prevent a skin from forming.

Refrigerate the natillas for at least 2 hours or until set.

When ready to serve, remove the plastic wrap and dust the tops of the natillas with cocoa powder.
