Description
A luxurious chocolate dome filled with a fluffy mascarpone cream, perfect for impressing guests at any celebration.
Ingredients
Scale
- 200 g dark chocolate (70–85% cocoa), chopped
- 250 g mascarpone cheese, chilled
- 100 ml heavy cream (36% or whipping cream)
- 50 g powdered sugar (confectioners’ sugar)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Cocoa powder, for dusting
Instructions
- Melt the dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over simmering water, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Pour into silicone dome molds, spreading evenly. Chill until fully set (about 30–45 minutes).
- In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form.
- In another bowl, combine mascarpone cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Gently fold in whipped cream until just combined.
- Carefully remove chocolate domes from molds. Fill each dome with mascarpone cream, and if desired, cover with more melted chocolate. Chill briefly to set.
- Dust with cocoa powder before serving. Enjoy immediately or store as directed.
Notes
Tempering is not strictly required, but gentle chilling is recommended to avoid chocolate bloom. Keep bowls cold for whipping cream.
