This trending merienda recipe puts a fun, modern twist on the classic Filipino champorado. The rich, chocolatey rice porridge is made even more exciting with a crunchy garnish of cornflakes for an unexpected texture contrast. But the real showstopper is the ube white chocolate dome that sits atop the champorado—once hot evaporated milk is poured over it, the dome melts away to reveal its sweet, creamy goodness inside.
Not only is it visually stunning, but the combination of warm champorado, creamy milk, and ube-infused chocolate creates a perfect blend of flavors. This dish is easy to make at home yet fancy enough to impress at any gathering. It’s a comforting treat that brings together nostalgic flavors with a fun, modern presentation.
