Chocolate Blancmange with Crème Anglaise

A heavenly chocolate dessert with a luscious cream sauce! It's a really delicious twist on the cold, molded dessert with the romantic French name :) A light breakfast (or dinner) that's both satisfying and airy, especially good on a hot summer day — though we love making it the rest of the year, too.

    1. Rinse the blancmange molds (four 120 ml molds) with cold water. 2. In a large bowl, combine the cornstarch and cocoa, add a little of the milk, and stir until smooth. 3. Gradually whisk in the rest of the milk. 4. Pour the mixture into a saucepan, add the powdered sugar, and set over medium heat. 5. Stirring constantly, bring it to a boil, then reduce the heat to its lowest setting. Cook for 3 minutes. 6. Stir in the vanilla extract. 7. Divide the mixture among the prepared molds and let cool, then refrigerate for now. 8. Make the crème anglaise: in a saucepan, combine half of the powdered sugar, the vanilla (scrape the seeds from the pod), and the milk. Heat over medium heat almost to a boil — but don't let it boil! In a separate bowl (not plastic), whisk the egg yolks with the remaining powdered sugar until pale, then, still whisking, pour in the hot milk mixture. Set the bowl over a pot of simmering water (a double boiler) and stir constantly for about 15 minutes, until it thickens. Cool it, then refrigerate for 40–60 minutes. 9. Turn the blancmange out onto flat plates, spoon the crème anglaise over the top, and garnish with sliced fresh strawberries. Enjoy!
