Instructions

  1. Melt the chopped chocolate with the liquid cream in a saucepan over very low heat, stirring until you get a smooth sauce.

  3. Place two scoops of ice cream per serving, then coat with the warm chocolate sauce.
  4. Add a big spoonful of chantilly on top and serve straight away.

Variations and tips

Kids' version. Replace the rum with a little grenadine syrup drizzled over the chantilly for a more playful look.
