Ingredients:
500ml heavy cream
200g dark chocolate, finely chopped
3 tbsp powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
Step 1: Melting the Chocolate
Begin by melting the dark chocolate. You can do this using a double boiler or by microwaving it in short intervals, stirring in between until smooth. Set aside and let it cool to room temperature.
Step 2: Chilling the Equipment
To ensure the best results, chill your mixing bowl and beaters in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes. This step helps the cream whip up faster and hold its shape.
Step 3: Whipping the Cream
Pour the heavy cream into the chilled mixing bowl. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Using an electric mixer, start on low speed to prevent splattering and gradually increase the speed to medium-high. Whip the cream until it starts to thicken.
Step 4: Adding the Melted Chocolate
Once the cream has thickened, gradually pour in the cooled melted chocolate while continuing to whip. Mix until the chocolate is fully incorporated and the cream reaches stiff peaks. Be careful not to overwhip, as it can result in a grainy texture.
Step 5: Applying the Chocolate Whipped Cream Frosting
Once your chocolate sponge cake has cooled completely, it's time to apply the chocolate whipped cream frosting. Place the cake on a serving plate or cake stand. Using a spatula or palette knife, spread a generous amount of the chocolate whipped cream frosting onto the top of the cake. Continue frosting the sides, working your way around until the entire cake is covered with a smooth and velvety layer of chocolate goodness.
Step 6: Optional Decorations
For an extra touch of elegance, you can decorate the cake with chocolate shavings, chocolate curls, or any other toppings of your choice. Let your creativity shine!
