Chocolate between layers of savoiardi

Prepare a custard with milk, sugar, cornstarch and egg yolks, then divide it between two bowls. Stir the chopped dark chocolate into one while the custard is still warm, until it has melted and blended smoothly.

Alternate chocolate custard, plain custard and savoiardi dipped in alchermes. Finish with cocoa and refrigerate for a few hours before serving.
