Ingredients:

• For the Chocolate Layer:
• 2 cups whole milk
• 100g dark chocolate (70% cocoa), chopped
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• For the Vanilla Layer:
• 2 cups whole milk
• 1 vanilla bean (or 1 teaspoon vanilla extract)
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons sugar

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Chocolate Layer:

1. Heat the Milk:

• In a medium saucepan, heat 2 cups of milk over medium heat until warm but not boiling.

1. Melt the Chocolate:

• Add the chopped dark chocolate to the warm milk and stir until fully melted and smooth.

1. Mix Cornstarch and Sugar:

• In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and sugar. Add a few tablespoons of the warm chocolate milk to the cornstarch mixture and stir until smooth.

1. Thicken the Chocolate Mixture:

• Slowly whisk the cornstarch mixture back into the saucepan with the rest of the chocolate milk. Continue to cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens, about 5-7 minutes.

1. Cool Slightly:

• Once thickened, remove from heat and let the chocolate cream cool for a few minutes.

1. Transfer to Glasses:

• Pour the chocolate mixture evenly into serving glasses, filling them halfway. Refrigerate while you prepare the vanilla layer.

2. Prepare the Vanilla Layer:

1. Heat the Milk:

• In another medium saucepan, heat 2 cups of milk with the vanilla bean (or vanilla extract) over medium heat. If using a vanilla bean, split it lengthwise and scrape the seeds into the milk. Let it warm gently but not boil.

1. Mix Cornstarch and Sugar:

• In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and sugar. Add a few tablespoons of the warm vanilla milk to the cornstarch mixture and stir until smooth.

1. Thicken the Vanilla Mixture:

• Slowly whisk the cornstarch mixture back into the saucepan with the rest of the vanilla milk. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until thickened, about 5-7 minutes.

1. Cool Slightly:

• Once thickened, remove from heat and allow it to cool for a few minutes.

3. Assemble the Dessert:

1. Pour the Vanilla Layer:

• Take the glasses with the chocolate layer from the fridge. Pour the vanilla cream mixture on top of the chocolate layer, filling the glasses.

1. Chill:

• Refrigerate the glasses for at least 2 hours to allow both layers to set completely.

4. Serve and Enjoy:

• Serve the Crème Dessert Bi-Goût Chocolat Vanille chilled. You can garnish it with whipped cream, chocolate shavings, or a sprinkle of cocoa powder for an extra touch of elegance.

Variations & Tips:

• Chocolate Intensity: For a more intense chocolate flavor, use 85% cocoa chocolate or add a pinch of espresso powder to the chocolate layer.
• Smooth Texture: To ensure a silky smooth texture, make sure to whisk continuously while cooking the creams, and strain the mixtures if any lumps form.
• Dairy-Free Option: You can substitute the whole milk with almond, oat, or coconut milk for a dairy-free version.

This Crème Dessert Bi-Goût Chocolat Vanille is a great way to satisfy both chocolate and vanilla lovers. The contrast between the two layers provides a wonderful balance of flavors and textures!
