Box of Trader Joe’s Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Brownie Mix
-
1 1/2 cups
Heavy whipping cream
Directions
- Chocolate Diplomat Cream Layer
-
Add the milk to a medium saucepan, place over medium heat and bring to a boil.
-
In a bowl, whisk the egg yolks and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the cornstarch and whisk until smooth.
-
Whisk the hot milk gradually into the egg mixture until incorporated.
-
Pour the mixture back into the saucepan. Cook over medium-high heat, whisking constantly, until thickened. You know it is done when you can run a wooden spoon along the bottom of the saucepan, and it leaves a clean line.
-
Remove from the heat and stir in the chocolate chips and butter until melted. Let cool slightly.
-
Cover with plastic wrap, lightly pressing the plastic against the surface to prevent a skin from forming.
Chill about an hour.
-
Once chilled, whip up the heavy cream until thick and you can overturn the bowl without any cream falling out. Remember not to over-whip.
Fold the whipped cream into the chocolate pastry cream.
