Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups heavy cream, divided
- 4 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pinch kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- Raspberries, optional
Directions
- In a small sauce pan over medium heat, bring a 1/2 cup of heavy cream to a bare simmer. Pour the cream over chopped chocolate, let sit for 1 minute. Add vanilla extract and kosher salt, then whisk until smooth. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes.
- Beat 1 cup heavy cream and powdered sugar in a medium bowl with a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium-high speed to stiff peaks about 3 minutes. Put 1/2 of the whipped cream in a container and store in the fridge until needed for decorating.
- Give the chilled chocolate mixture a whisk then fold it into the remaining whipped cream with a silicone spatula. Take care not to overmix, streaks are okay.
- Distribute between glasses or bowls and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Garnish with whipped cream and raspberries.
