VIENNETTA OR VAGLIETTA – “Ice Cream and Chocolate Log”
We could all agree that Tiziana’s dessert was the best! She created a lovely version of the…Vaglietta!! Some people call it Viennetta but not in Vagli!
Ingredients
- | 500ml of vegetable cream for desserts |
- | 280gr of condensed milk |
- | 150gr of dark chocolate |
- | chopped hazelnuts, cocoa powder to taste |
Utensils
- | a loaf pan covered with cling film
|
- | parchment paper |
- | a spatula |
- | electric whisk |
Method
1 | Prepare a loaf pan by covering it with cling film. On a sheet of parchment paper, draw with a pencil the base of the loaf pan four times.
|
2 | Melt the chocolate in a bain-marie. Once the chocolate has melted, pour it a little at a time on the four shapes drawn on the parchment paper, spreading it with a spatula to cover the entire strip. Put it to freeze in the freezer. |
3 | In the meantime put the fresh cream in a bowl and whip it with an electric whisk. When the cream is whipped, add the condensed milk and continue whisking until firm. |
4 | Now it’s time to assemble the log. In the loaf pan start layering the strips of chocolate and the cream. First put a strip of chocolate, then pour a thick layer of cream and continue until the cream is finished and the last strip of chocolate is at the top. |
5 | Put the log to freeze in the freezer for at least six hours. After this time, turn the mold on a tray and remove the log from the mold. Sprinkle with bitter cocoa and complete with sprinkles of cream and chopped hazelnuts. |
