Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Melt the chocolate in a bain-marie and allow it to come to room temperature.

    A double boiler (or bain-marie) is simply one pot stacked on top of another. You place water in the lower pot and heat it to barely a simmer. The steam from the lower pot gently heats the upper pot where the chocolate is gradually melted. This method prevents the chocolate from burning.
  2. Use a food processor to pulse the biscuits to a breadcrumb consistency.

  3. In a bowl, mix the yogurt, milk, cognac (or juice) and zest until all ingredients are well combined. 

  4. Add gently the chocolate into the mix (making sure not to over-stir) until incorporated.

  5. Pour equal quantities of the the biscuit crumbs into the serving glasses and spoon the chocolate mix evenly over the biscuits. 

  6. Refrigerate for 4 hours or until set and chill. Serve.

Notes

  • You can replace cognac with 1 Tbsp orange juice.
  • Serve in individual bowls or glasses.
  • Store in  in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
  • Topping ideas: Crushed nuts like hazelnuts and pecans, freeze-dried berries, Fresh berries, different kinds of chocolate, orange zest.
