Ingredients
- 1 cup heavy cream, 3 tbsp granulated sugar, 2 egg yolks, 1 tsp vanilla extract, 1/4 cup cold water, 2 cups milk, 2 oz chocolate liqueur, Chocolate shavings for garnish
Instructions
- Begin by heating the heavy cream and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat until warm. In a separate bowl, whisk together egg yolks and vanilla extract. Slowly pour the heated cream mixture into the egg mixture while continuously whisking to avoid curdling. Return the combined mixture to the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens and coats the back of a spoon. Remove from heat and let cool completely. In a large bowl, combine cold water and milk. Slowly pour in the cooled cream mixture while continuously whisking. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. To serve, divide the chilled cream among four glasses, top with chocolate liqueur, and garnish with chocolate shavings.
Chef’s Insight
The key to achieving the perfect texture for this mocktail is patience; allowing the custard mixture to cool completely before blending it with the milk ensures a smooth, velvety consistency.
Notes
When choosing chocolate liqueur, opt for a high-quality brand that complements the rich flavors of the mocktail.
