At the table

Heat whole milk with lemon peel, then add it gradually to sugar, yolks and cornstarch. Divide the cooked custard and add chocolate to one part before layering it with alchermes-soaked savoiardi.

Use whole milk for this custard. A different milk or a plant-based drink changes the starting ingredient.
