How to cook Eggnog Chocolate Supreme
- On medium heat, melt chocolate with butter. Mix well (use water bath).
- While your chocolate is melting, separate 6 eggs yolks from whites.
- In a bowl, whip your egg whites with 1 pinch of salt until soft peaks form. Set aside.
- In a different bowl, slowly and progressively add the melted chocolate to your egg yolks while mixing.
- Once well mixed, add 1/3 of the egg whites to loosen the chocolate mixture. Mix well.
- Continue adding the remaining egg whites. Mix well.
- Refrigerate for 3 hours.
- Tip: After refrigeration, if your chocolate mixture is too dense or firm, add a little milk or cream while mixing until you attain the desired consistency.
- If you purchase a whole graham cookie, break it up into fine pieces.
- With the tip of your knife, remove the seeds from the vanilla bean.
- In a saucepan, mix the eggnog milk, add a pinch of salt, vanilla seeds and bean.
- On a medium heat, while mixing, bring eggnog mixture to boil.
- Slowly add the risotto rice and let gently simmer for 5 minutes.
- Lower the heat to minimum and cover saucepan while leaving a small vent hole.
- Leave on minimum heat for 35 minutes while mixing every 10 minutes.
- Remove and set aside to cool to room temperature.
- Remove the vanilla bean and place mixture in a large bowl.
- In a different bowl, whip 35% cream until small peaks form.
- With a wooden spatula, gently mix the whipping cream into the eggnog mixture to obtain an even consistency.
- Cover and set aside in the refrigerator for 1 hour or until you are ready to assemble in the dessert cups.
- Cut the strawberries in thin slices.
- Assemble the layers with a strawberry along each of the sides of the cup (as per photo), then the chocolate, then the graham cracker, and finally the eggnog mix. Garnish with 2 strawberry slices.
