Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Electric mixer
  • Spatula
  • Serving glasses or bowls
  • Heatproof bowl

Ingredients

  • 8 ounces dark chocolate (70% cocoa)
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • A pinch of salt

Instructions

  • Chop the dark chocolate into small pieces and place them in a heatproof bowl. Microwave the chocolate in 30-second intervals, stirring between until smooth and glossy. Pro tip: Adding a teaspoon of vegetable oil helps achieve a silky consistency.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Gradually add the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt, continuing to whip until stiff peaks appear.
  • Gently fold one-third of the whipped cream into the melted chocolate. Once combined, incorporate the remaining whipped cream. Transfer to serving glasses or bowls and refrigerate at least 4 hours.
