Recipe Notes

You must use a high-quality dark chocolate. Use 70% if you like your chocolate a little bitter.

Opt for the coconut cream over whipping cream for a lightened up non-dairy option. Make sure you buy a high-fat coconut cream vs a runny coconut milk!

Freezes well: Make ahead and pop on a silver platter to serve.
