Ptichye Moloko (Bird’s Milk)

Recipe Description

Ptichye Moloko (Bird’s Milk) is a delicious dessert with a creamy mousse-like base topped with a thin layer of chocolate topping. My secret to making this pudding is to make sure the surface of the creamy mixture is very smooth as the chocolate layer is thin. 

Start by making the creamy mixture for the base. To make this, combine milk, with gelatin and add sugar, sour cream and cool whip. As this cools in the refrigerator, make the chocolate topping by mixing cocoa, sugar and gelatin. Top the creamy base with the cocoa topping and chill in the refrigerator. Enjoy! 

To make Ptichye Moloko (Bird’s Milk), you will need the following ingredients:
