Method
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and Caster Sugar until they turn a pale blonde colour.
Whisk in the flour and cornflour and set aside.
Place the milk and vanilla syrup in a heavy-bottomed saucepan, bring to a boil and simmer for about five minutes.
Remove the pan from the heat and let cool for 30 seconds.
Pour the hot milk onto the egg mixture, whisking all the time, then return the mixture to the pan. It is important to pour the hot milk onto the cold eggs before you return the mixture to the pan to prevent the eggs from scrambling.
Bring the mixture back to the boil and simmer for one minute, whisking continuously, or until smooth. Stir in 200gm dark chocolate melts.
Pour the cream into a clean bowl and dust with icing sugar to prevent a skin forming.
