Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 6 oz semi-sweet chocolate chopped
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy cream cold
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar

Method
 

  1. Heat 1/2 cup of the cream until steaming, pour it over the chocolate and stir until smooth. Cool to room temperature.
  2. Whip the remaining cream with the sugar to soft peaks.
  3. Stir a spoonful of the cream into the chocolate to loosen it.
  4. Fold in the rest of the cream gently until no streaks remain.
  5. Spoon into 4 glasses and chill for 2 hours.

Notes

The chocolate must be cool but still fluid before folding, or it will melt the whipped cream.
