Chocolate Rice Recipe

Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes
Servings: 4

Ingredients:

• 250g ricotta cheese
• 2 tablespoons Baileys Irish Cream
• 1 cup short-grain rice
• 1 dark chocolate bar, grated (about 60g)
• 1 cup water
• 3 extra dark chocolate bars (about 185g), chopped
• 1/2 cup superfine sugar
• 1/4 cup water
• 2 egg yolks

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ricotta Mixture:

   • In a large mixing bowl, beat the ricotta cheese until smooth and creamy.

2. Add Sweetness and Flavor:

   • Incorporate 2 tablespoons of superfine sugar, Baileys Irish Cream, and cream into the beaten ricotta cheese. Beat until well combined.

3. Introduce the Rice:

   • Stir in the short-grain rice and the first portion of grated dark chocolate into the ricotta mixture until evenly distributed.

4. Portion into Bowls:

   • Divide the chocolate rice mixture evenly among four serving bowls or glasses, ensuring each portion is well-distributed and visually appealing.

5. Prepare the Chocolate Sauce:

   • In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the water and chopped extra dark chocolate bars. Stir continuously until the chocolate has melted completely. Remove from heat and set aside.

6. Create Sugar Syrup:

   • In another saucepan, combine the extra superfine sugar and water. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly until the sugar is completely dissolved. Increase the heat and bring the mixture to a rapid boil for about 5 minutes or until it reaches the soft ball stage when a small amount is dropped into cold water.

7. Prepare the Egg Yolk Mixture:

   • While the sugar syrup is boiling, beat the egg yolks in a separate bowl until they become pale and slightly thickened.

8. Combine Egg Yolks and Syrup:

   • Slowly pour the boiling sugar syrup into the beaten egg yolks while continuing to beat vigorously. Beat until the mixture cools down to room temperature.

9. Incorporate Melted Chocolate:

   • Once the egg yolk mixture has cooled, gradually beat in the melted chocolate until the mixture becomes smooth and velvety.

10. Assemble the Chocolate Rice Dessert:

    • Pour the chocolate sauce over the ricotta mixture in each serving bowl or glass, ensuring it covers the surface evenly.

11. Chill and Set:

    • Place the assembled desserts in the refrigerator and allow them to chill until firm, typically for a few hours or overnight.

12. Garnish and Serve:

    • Before serving, decorate each Chocolate Rice dessert with a sprinkle of grated dark chocolate for an extra touch of elegance and indulgence.

Now, sit back, indulge, and enjoy the creamy richness and irresistible chocolatey goodness of this delightful Chocolate Rice dessert with your loved ones! 🌟
