Step-by-Step Instructions
To start, I first melted the semi-sweet chocolate chips in a saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly until they are smooth and glossy. In another bowl, I combined the coconut milk, powdered sugar, cornstarch, and vanilla extract, whisking until well blended. Once the chocolate’s melted, I poured this mixture into the saucepan, continuing to stir until it thickened—about 2-3 minutes. The smell of melting chocolate wafting through my kitchen was just heavenly, making me anticipate the first slice already! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
