How to make Chocolate Whipped Cream:
- To start preparing the chocolate whipped cream, we leave all the ingredients ready. To do this, if you do not have powdered sugar, you should know that you can prepare it yourself at home by following the steps of our simple icing sugar recipe.
- Once we have everything ready, we begin! Pour the milk cream into a bowl and beat vigorously with an electric whisk to assemble it. As it is assembled, we add the sugar little by little and without stopping beating. It is very important to add the icing sugar before the milk cream has fully assembled, because it could cut and spoil the frosting without butter.
- Reserve the whipped cream for a moment and melt the chocolate in the microwave at 1-minute intervals. It is better to melt it in several intervals to avoid burning.
- Once melted, add half of the whipped cream to the chocolate and integrate it with a spatula, making enveloping movements to prevent the frosting from losing body and volume. Once a homogeneous and lump-free mixture is obtained, add the other half and mix in the same way, very carefully.
- If we are not going to use the chocolate whipped cream immediately, we can cover the bowl or container with plastic wrap and reserve it in the refrigerator until ready to use. As you can see, it is a very easy and quick homemade truffle to make, ideal for decorating vanilla cupcakes, or any other flavor, biscuits and even for filling profiteroles.
