  • ½ cup (125mL) 2% milk
  • 1 10-oz (300mL) can sweetened condensed milk

  • 1 tsp (4mL) vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp (2mL) almond extract

Method

Remove from heat and add chopped chocolate. Let stand for 1 minute before stirring to combine well. Let cool.

Step 3.

Whisk remaining ingredients together in a large bowl until frothy. Whisk in cream and chocolate mixture, then pour into a sealable bottle and store in the fridge for up to 2 months.
