Ingredients

  • 1 pint (2 cups) heavy whipping cream, well chilled
  • 10 to 12 oz bittersweet baking chocolate (60% to 70% cacao), broken into small pieces

Steps

  • 1
    In large bowl, beat whipping cream at medium speed just until stiff peaks form.

    In double boiler or in bowl set over saucepan, melt chocolate over simmering water. Pour melted chocolate into whipped cream; fold chocolate into cream (do not overmix; mixture can have a few streaks). Refrigerate at least 1 hour before serving.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

    Full Bodied Flavor! Looking for that extra kiss of flavor? Add a smidgen of rum or orange-flavored liqueur to the whipping cream once it's been whipped. Delish!
  • tip 2
    Totally Toppings! Fresh raspberries, mint leaves, orange curls, whipping cream and chocolate shavings all make beautiful toppers for this recipe.
