In medium-size saucepan, mix gelatin and cocoa. In separate bowl,
beat egg yolks with 1 cup half&half. Blend into gelatin mixture. Let
stand 1 minute to soften gelatin. Stir over low heat until gelatin
is completely dissolved, about 5 minutes. Add remaining half&half,
sweetener and vanilla. Pour into large bowl and chill, stirring
occasionally, until mixture mounds slightly when dropped from spoon.
In separate large bowl, beat egg whites until soft peaks form;
gradually add gelatin mixture and beat until doubled in volume,
about 5 minutes. Chill until mixture is
slightly thickened. Turn into dessert dishes or 1-quart bowl and
chill until set. |
