18ozseedless green grapes (500g)(cleaned and dried)
17 fl. ozmilk (500 ml)(2% or full fat)
2tablespoonscornstarch
14ozsweetened condensed milk (396g)
3egg yolks
1teaspoonvanilla extract
3.5ozmilk chocolate (100g)(broken into small pieces)
3oz semi-sweet chocolate (90g)(broken into small pieces)
Instructions
Wash and dry the grapes and set them aside in the fridge.
In a medium pan, whisk together milk and cornstarch off the heat until cornstarch is completely dissolved.
Add sweetened condensed milk and stir until combined.
Sieve egg yolks, removing the chalaza and any remaining egg white. Whisk to combine egg yolks with the milk mixture.
Cook it on medium heat until it starts to bubble. Lower the heat, whisk for 1 more minute, and turn the heat off. Add the vanilla extract and whisk to combine.
Measure the pudding and divide it into 2 equal parts. Refrigerate one portion, covering it with plastic wrap touching the pudding. Bring the other portion back to the hot pan.
Add the broken chocolate pieces and mix until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is lump-free and uniform. Refrigerate for about 30 minutes or until pudding is no longer warm, with a plastic wrap touching its surface. Don't let the chocolate pudding get too cold before assembling it; it might be more difficult to spread it in the cups.
Choose a serving cup. Assembly the grape dessert by making a layer of grapes, a layer of vanilla pudding, another layer of grapes, and one layer of chocolate pudding. The number of grapes to be used will depend on the size of the cups. For 5oz cups, I found that about 10 grapes were a good ratio for the amount of pudding in each cup, but you can use more or less to your liking. Decorate as you wish and refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours before serving.
