This is the classic pastry cream with bitter cocoa added to the dry ingredients, not melted chocolate: the texture stays light instead of turning into a ganache. The critical point is always temperature — egg yolks begin to set around 65 °C, and above 85 °C they scramble. But enough talking — let's go straight to loading the ingredients into Liffo!

Tips

Ideal whole fresh milk. Vanilla can be replaced with other spices or essences.

Plating

Once ready, pour the mixture into a container and let cool at room temperature. When cold, let rest in the refrigerator for at least an hour or until solid. The cream is excellent for dipping dry cookies, paired with fresh fruit or chopped nuts.
