Time 30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/4 pound semi-sweet chocolate
1 ounce (1/4 stick) unsalted butter, soft
3 1/2 cups milk
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 cup cocoa
3/4 cup sugar
2 eggs
3 egg yolks
1/4 cup Kahlua
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa
2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/4 cups milk
2 eggs
Butter for cookie sheet
Strawberry almond salsa (see recipe)

Steps:

  • Melt chocolate and butter over simmering water in top of a double boiler.
  • Pour 1/2 cup of the milk into a medium-size bowl. Whisk in the cornstarch, cocoa and 1/4 cup of the sugar.
  • In a medium-size saucepan over medium heat, scald remaining 3 cups of milk and 1/2 cup of sugar by heating to just under a boil, when it begins to foam. Remove from heat, and whisk hot liquid into the cornstarch mixture. Return to heat and, while constantly scraping bottom of pan with a whisk, cook until tiny bubbles boil up for 10 seconds, no more.
  • Put eggs and egg yolks in a bowl. Whisking vigorously, slowly drizzle in one cup of hot liquid. Pour everything back into saucepan. Simmer until tiny bubbles boil up again, constantly scraping bottom of pan with a whisk. Stir in Kahlua. Strain pudding, and fold in the melted chocolate and butter. Cover with wax paper to prevent a skin from forming. Set aside for one hour. Refrigerate until chilled.
  • To make enchiladas, first make the crepes. Put flour, cocoa, sugar, milk and eggs in the bowl of a food processor, or blender and run at high speed for one minute. Scrape down the sides, and run for another 10 seconds. Let batter rest in refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • Place a nonstick saute pan or crepe pan over medium-high heat for one minute. Remove it from heat and, holding it with one hand, pour 1/4 cup of the batter into it. Quickly tilt it so a thin film of batter coats pan's bottom. Return pan to heat, and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the top looks set but not dry and you can lift crepe with a rubber spatula and then your fingers. (Cover your free hand with a paper towel to catch finished crepe.)
  • Place crepes cooked-side-up on a sheet of waxed paper, and repeat with rest of batter. You should have 8 to 10.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Lightly butter a cookie sheet.
  • Place a crepe, cooked side up, on a dry work surface. Drop about 1/4 cup of pudding in the center. Spread it from side to side, leaving one-inch borders. Fold bottom edge over the center of the pudding. Next, fold the right side of the crepe back to the middle; repeat with the left side. Fold the last section toward the middle to make the enchilada. Repeat with remaining crepes. These may be prepared up to a day in advance.
  • Place each enchilada, seam side down, on buttered pan. Bake for 5 to 7 minutes to warm them. Serve with strawberry almond salsa.

This recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred a more traditional chocolate enchilada recipe.

These enchiladas were easy to make and turned out great. The chocolate and strawberry flavors were well-balanced, and the almond salsa added a nice crunch.

I was skeptical about this recipe, but I'm so glad I tried it. The enchiladas were rich and chocolatey, and the salsa was the perfect complement. I'll definitely be making these again.
