Mixing condensed milk with peaches creates a delightful and refreshing dessert that’s sure to impress. This easy-to-make treat combines the sweetness of peaches with the richness of condensed milk and the creaminess of whipped cream, all enhanced by the texture and flavor of chocolate. Follow these steps to make a dessert perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients:
- 1 tin of peaches
- 395 grams condensed milk
- 500 ml whipping cream
- 200 grams chocolate
Instructions:
- Prepare the Peaches:
- Begin by opening the tin of peaches and draining the liquid using a sieve. This step ensures that your dessert doesn’t become too watery, which could affect the final texture.
- Once the peaches are well-drained, add them to a blender. Pulse until you achieve a smooth puree. The puree will be the base of your dessert, offering a natural sweetness and a lovely peach flavor.
- Mix Peaches and Condensed Milk:
- Pour the peach puree into a large mixing bowl.
- Add 395 grams of condensed milk to the bowl. Condensed milk is sweet and thick, providing the perfect balance to the fruity peach puree.
- Mix well until the ingredients are fully combined. The mixture should be smooth and creamy. The condensed milk not only sweetens the puree but also thickens it, giving it a rich texture.
- Whip the Cream:
- In a separate bowl, pour in 500 ml of whipping cream. The cream needs to be cold for it to whip properly.
- Use an electric mixer to beat the cream until it doubles in volume and forms stiff peaks. This means that when you lift the beaters out of the cream, the peaks stand up straight without collapsing. Whipped cream adds lightness and volume to the dessert, making it airy and smooth.
- Combine Mixtures:
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the peach and condensed milk mixture. Be careful not to deflate the whipped cream too much; you want to retain as much air as possible to keep the dessert light and fluffy.
- Fold until the mixture is smooth and fully integrated. The resulting mixture should be pale, creamy, and evenly mixed, with no streaks of whipped cream visible.
- Add Chocolate:
- Take 200 grams of chocolate and chop it into small pieces using a knife. You can use dark, milk, or white chocolate, depending on your preference. Dark chocolate adds a rich, slightly bitter contrast to the sweet peach mixture, while milk or white chocolate provides a creamier, sweeter addition.
- Add the chocolate pieces to the mixture and stir gently to distribute them evenly throughout the dessert. The chocolate pieces add texture and a burst of flavor in every bite.
- Set the Dessert:
- Transfer the mixture into a serving dish. Use a spatula to smooth the top and ensure an even surface.
- Cover the dish with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 4 hours. This chilling time allows the dessert to set properly and the flavors to meld together. The longer it chills, the firmer it will become, making it easier to serve.
- Serve and Enjoy:
- Once the dessert has set, remove it from the refrigerator.
- Scoop the creamy peach and chocolate delight into serving bowls or glasses. Each serving should showcase the smooth, creamy texture with visible pieces of chocolate.
- Optionally, garnish with extra chocolate shavings, peach slices, or a sprig of mint for added presentation and a touch of freshness.
Tips and Variations:
- Fruit Variations: While peaches are delicious, you can experiment with other fruits such as mangoes, strawberries, or pineapples. Each fruit will bring its unique flavor and sweetness to the dessert. Adjust the sweetness to taste if using different fruits.
- Nut Additions: For added texture and flavor, consider mixing in some chopped nuts like almonds, pistachios, or walnuts. Nuts add a crunchy contrast to the creamy dessert.
- Flavor Enhancements: A splash of vanilla extract or a pinch of cinnamon can add a new dimension to the flavor of this dessert. Vanilla adds warmth and depth, while cinnamon pairs beautifully with peaches.
- Serving Suggestions: This dessert is perfect on its own, but you can serve it with a side of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence.
This creamy peach and chocolate dessert is a perfect combination of fruity freshness and sweet indulgence. It’s easy to make and sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. The smooth peach puree, rich condensed milk, and fluffy whipped cream create a light and airy base, while the chocolate pieces add a delightful texture and flavor. Serve it at your next gathering or enjoy it as a special treat for yourself and your family.
