World Chocolate Day falls on July 7, and it is the perfect occasion to indulge in decadent desserts. Sandeep Rane, the corporate chef of bakery and confectionery at Hitchki, with outlets across Mumbai, has got you covered with his recipe for a sinful choco-lava kulfi dessert. It features an ice-cold malai kulfi dipped into a warm gooey chocolate lava cake. This recipe, which serves 6, is a great treat for you as well as your family and friends.
4 tablespoons sugar
Nuts as per taste
Method
- On medium-high heat, bring the milk to a boil in a milk pan.
- Once the milk starts to boil, reduce the heat and boil for another 10 minutes on medium heat, stirring frequently to avoid the milk burning at the bottom.
- Reduce the milk to a thick rabdi-like consistency and add sugar. Mix well to dissolve.
- Nuts can be added at this step for more crunch.
- Cool down the mixture and set in an aluminium kulfi cone mould.
- Insert a wooden stick in the centre of the mould and freeze for 7-8 hours.
