- 8 grams Gelatin
- 30 ml Water
- 100 ml Milk
- 200 grams Chocolate
- 250 grams Sour cream
Begin by combining the gelatin and water in a small bowl. Allow the gelatin to swell for a few minutes.
In another small bowl, pour in the milk. Place the bowl over low heat, ensuring it does not boil. We want the milk to be warm, not scalded.
While the milk is warming, take the chocolate and break it into smaller pieces. Add these to the warm milk, stirring gently until the chocolate has completely melted and combined with the milk.
Next, add the sour cream to the chocolate mixture. Stir vigorously with your hands until the sour cream is fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Now, it's time to deal with the gelatin. Heat the gelatin mixture gently until it liquefies. Once it has turned into a liquid, slowly pour it into the chocolate mixture. Make sure the gelatin is properly spread by giving it a good stir.
Take a mold or individual serving dishes and pour the chocolate gelatin mixture into them. Use a spoon to smooth the surface, ensuring it is even.
Move the mold gently to remove any air bubbles that might have formed, and then place it in the refrigerator. Allow the dessert to chill until it is completely set and firm.
Once the chocolate gelatin dessert has fully set, take it out of the refrigerator and serve it chilled.
If you'd like, you may top it with chocolate shavings, whipped cream, or fresh fruit.
Delightful, chilled chocolate gelatin dessert ready to be enjoyed.
