Chocolate Rabri & Blueberry compote Cups - Ma 50th post

Happy Valentines Day to One & All....

Valentines day & ma 50th post ....... wat more do I need to celebrate?? Was planning to bake a chocolate cake bookmarked months ago for this day, but had to postpne it again coz of ma son's illness. I really couldn't find time to bake one; was thinking of some easy recipes when this one came to ma mind. This was the one I thot of  trying it since I've seen Radhicka( Master Chef,India) making this. It was so yummy & chocolaty that i luvd a lot.. the combination of chocolate & rabri is new for me...& blueberry!! SONE PE SUHAAGA HO GAYAA !!


Ingredients:

500grams:  Dark Chocolate      
1 litre:  Milk
1 cup: Blue Berries
1 cup: Sugar







Special Equipment Requirement:
-15 Muffin Paper Cases
-1 Thick paint brush

Method:

1. Melt chocolate on a double boiler. Using a pastry brush, coat the inside of a mini muffin case with melted chocolate and refrigerate to set. If u want a thick liner, then coat it again for a second time, after setting...& then refrigerate again.


2. Put the milk in a heavy bottom pan, and put on low flame. Stir constantly till reduced to half.
Cool a bit and mix in 3 tbsp of sugar.I reduced it to 1/4 cup. It took abt 1 hr for me..Rabri in the literal sense means condensed milk. Please do not get confused....you can make rabri at home by reducing full cream milk to a consistency you would be pleased to eat. Condensed milk that we get in tins is a highly reduced and sweetened milk that is used to make mithais and confectionery.

3. Combine blue berries with 1/2 cup of sugar in a pan. Add 3-4 tablespoons of water and cook till thick and cool.

4. Remove the chocolate cups and carefully tear the muffin case before the chocolate starts melting. Spoon rabri in half the shell and spoon blueberry compote next to it. Garnish with a mint sprig.


5.Allow to set for atleast 4 hrs.
