Ingredients
Main
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk
- 200g of chopped bittersweet chocolate
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1/2 cup of dulce de leche
- 1 pinch of salt
Instructions
Principal
- In a non-stick pan, place the condensed milk, butter, and a pinch of salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly.
- When the mixture starts to pull away from the bottom of the pot, add the chopped chocolate and continue mixing until completely melted.
- Once the chocolate is well incorporated, add the dulce de leche and stir vigorously until you get a homogeneous cream.
- Remove the pan from the heat and pour the mixture into a pan greased with butter.
- Let cool to room temperature and then refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.
- After resting, unmold the sweet carefully and cut into pieces.
- Serve chilled or at room temperature, accompanied by fruit or ice cream, if desired.
Chef's tips
- To improve the flavor, add a pinch of vanilla during cooking.
- Instead of semi-sweet chocolate, you can use white chocolate for a different flavor.
- To heat quickly, I can unmold the sweet and leave it at room temperature for a few minutes before cutting and serving.
Variations
- For a healthier version, you can replace condensed milk with skim milk.
- For a smoother dulce de leche, you can use less dulce de leche.
- For a more intense dulce de leche, you can add more chocolate.
Substitutions
- Instead of butter, you can use vegetable oil to reduce the salty flavor.
- If you don't have doce de leite, you can substitute with whole milk.
- Instead of chocolate, you can use cocoa powder for a creamier texture.
