Ingredients
Scale
Whipped Cream Base
- 1 cup heavy cream, whipped until firm
Flavoring
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon peanut butter (optional)
- Stevia, to taste
Instructions
- Whip the Cream: In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream using a hand mixer or stand mixer until firm peaks form, creating a light and airy base for the dessert.
- Fold in Flavorings: Gently fold cocoa powder and peanut butter into the whipped cream until fully incorporated, ensuring the mixture remains fluffy without deflating the cream.
- Sweeten the Dessert: Add stevia gradually according to your preferred level of sweetness, mixing gently to combine evenly.
- Chill: Place the dessert mixture in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld and the dessert to set slightly for optimal texture.
- Serve: Serve the dessert chilled, either on its own or with your favorite garnish, and enjoy a creamy, chocolatey treat.
Notes
- If you prefer a stronger peanut butter flavor, adjust the quantity accordingly or use natural peanut butter for an earthier taste.
- Stevia quantities can be customized; start with a small amount since it is a concentrated sweetener.
- For a dairy-free alternative, try whipping coconut cream instead of heavy cream.
- This recipe is best served fresh but can be stored covered in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
