Serves: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup dark rum
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
Instructions
- Chill a large mixing bowl and whisk in the refrigerator for 15 minutes before starting to ensure the cream whips perfectly.
- In the chilled bowl, combine the heavy cream, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Begin whisking or using an electric mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form.
- Gradually add the dark rum while continuing to whip the cream mixture, ensuring it is incorporated smoothly and evenly.
- Sift the cocoa powder gently over the whipped cream, folding it in carefully to create a marbled chocolate-rum cream texture.
- Transfer the rum cream mixture to a serving bowl or individual dessert glasses, using a spatula to create elegant swirls.
- Refrigerate the dessert for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the cream to set completely.
- Before serving, optionally garnish with a light dusting of cocoa powder, chocolate shavings, or a small mint leaf for additional visual appeal.
- Serve chilled and enjoy the rich, creamy rum-infused dessert as a luxurious after-dinner treat.
Tips
- Chill is key! Always refrigerate your mixing bowl and whisk beforehand to ensure the cream whips to perfect, fluffy peaks.
- Add rum gradually to maintain the cream's stability and prevent separation. Slow and steady wins the race!
- When folding in cocoa powder, use a gentle hand to create beautiful marbled effects without deflating the whipped cream.
- For an extra touch of elegance, use a piping bag to create beautiful swirls when serving in individual glasses.
- The dessert tastes even better when allowed to set properly, so don't rush the 30-minute chilling time.
- Experiment with garnishes like chocolate shavings, mint leaves, or a light cocoa powder dusting to elevate the visual appeal.
- Use high-quality dark rum and pure vanilla extract for the most sophisticated flavor profile.
