chocolate custard

Brown creamy dessert

Chocolate custard is a thick, creamy dessert made by cooking milk or cream with eggs, sugar, and chocolate or cocoa.

The eggs thicken the mixture when heated, creating a smooth, rich texture.

It can be served on its own, used as a pie or tart filling, or layered in trifles and other desserts: The chocolate custard set perfectly in the fridge overnight.
