Ingredients
- 150 grams dark chocolate
- 240 milliliters heavy cream
- 120 grams smooth peanut butter
- 50 grams powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoons sea salt
- 0 for garnish whipped cream
- 0 for garnish chopped roasted peanuts
Directions
Step 1
Chop the dark chocolate into small pieces and place them in a heatproof bowl.
Step 2
In a small saucepan, heat 120 ml (half) of the heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Do not let it boil.
Step 3
Pour the hot cream over the chopped chocolate. Let it sit for 1-2 minutes to allow the chocolate to melt, then whisk until smooth and glossy. Set aside to cool slightly.
Step 4
In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and sea salt. Stir until smooth and well incorporated.
Step 5
In a separate large bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to whip the remaining 120 ml of heavy cream to medium peaks.
Step 6
Gently fold half of the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture to lighten it, then fold in the remaining whipped cream until fully combined.
Step 7
Layer the dessert by spooning or piping alternating layers of the peanut butter creme and chocolate ganache into small glasses or ramekins.
Step 8
Chill the filled glasses in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to set.
Step 9
Before serving, top each glass with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of chopped roasted peanuts for garnish.
