Directions
- 1
Combine the condensed milk, chocolate powder, and butter in a medium heavy-bottomed saucepan. Stir well together before turning the heat to medium.
- 2
Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly with a wooden or silicone spatula for 10–15 minutes, until the mixture thickens and starts to pull away from the sides of the pan.
- 3
Remove from heat and pour immediately into a lightly buttered glass dish. Let cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour 30 minutes.
- 4
Serve chilled with a spoon. Top with chocolate sprinkles or a dusting of cocoa powder for a beautiful finish.
💡 Chef's Tip
Keep stirring the entire time — stopping even briefly can cause the bottom to scorch. Medium-low heat gives the creamiest, smoothest result.
