1. Whisk the skimmed milk powder in to the cold milk. Warm the milk mix and just before boiling, whisk in the cocoa powder. Allow to cool slightly.
2. Mix in the sweetener, vanilla and chocolate essence then make up the gelatine according to packet instructions. Add to the chocolate mixture. Leave in a cool place until the mixture thickens, but do not let it set.
