Ingredients:
- 2 cups of whole milk
- 1 tablespoon of heavy cream
- 1/2 cup of granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon of cornstarch
- A pinch of salt
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup of cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup of shredded coconut (optional, for garnish)
Instructions:
Step 1: Prepare the Custard Base
In a medium saucepan, combine the whole milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and a pinch of salt. Cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly to avoid lumps, until it thickens.
Once thickened, remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Step 2: Add the Cocoa Powder
Whisk in the cocoa powder until fully incorporated into the custard mixture. Pour the mixture evenly into a glass dish or individual serving cups.
