Homemade Monte Pudding
Ingredients
- 1 2/3 cups (400 ml) heavy cream
- 1 2/3 cups (400 ml) whole milk (3.5% fat)
- 1/4 cup (50 g) cornstarch
- 1/4 cup (50 g) sugar
- 2 packets vanilla sugar
- 1 tablespoon Nutella
- 1 tablespoon hazelnut spread (I used Mövenpick, but Gürsoy is my favorite)
- 2 teaspoons cocoa powder
Instructions
- In a saucepan, mix together the heavy cream, whole milk, cornstarch, sugar, and vanilla sugar until smooth.
- Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring constantly.
- Once the mixture thickens to a pudding-like consistency, remove it from the heat.
- Divide the pudding mixture evenly into two separate bowls.
- To one bowl, add the Nutella and hazelnut spread, stirring until well combined.
- To the other bowl, add the cocoa powder, stirring until well combined.
- Allow both pudding mixtures to cool completely, then refrigerate until chilled and firm.
- Once chilled, take each pudding mixture and beat it separately until creamy.
- Layer the creamy mixtures in serving glasses or bowls, alternating between the chocolate and hazelnut layers.
- Refrigerate the assembled Monte for at least an hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
