Step 3: Freeze and Chill
To prevent a skin from forming on the surface of the English cream, cover the inside of a plastic wrap with a towel before placing it on the surface. Refrigerate for at least four hours, or until thoroughly chilled.
Step 4: Serve and Garnish
For additional texture and flavor, sprinkle toasted coconut flakes on top before serving (optional). Use a spoon to divide the mixture into servings, ensuring each portion includes a generous amount of both English cream and cocoa nibs.
Pro Tips for the Perfect Chocolate Nougat Treat
Substitute Whole Milk with Coconut Milk
For a richer flavor, consider using coconut milk instead of whole milk. This substitution enhances the tropical notes and adds a creamy texture to the dessert.
Adjust the Sweetness
You can adjust the sweetness of the dessert by adding or omitting the sugar-coated cocoa nibs according to your preference. This flexibility allows you to tailor the treat to suit your taste buds perfectly.
