**Mitternachtstraum 2**
**Ingredients:**
– 1 cup heavy cream
– 8 oz dark chocolate, chopped
– 1 tsp vanilla extract
– 2 tbsp granulated sugar
– Fresh berries, for garnish
**Instructions:**
1. Begin by heating the heavy cream in a small saucepan over low heat. Be sure to stir occasionally to prevent scalding.
2. While the cream is heating, place the chopped dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl.
3. Once the cream is just beginning to simmer, remove it from the heat and pour it over the chopped chocolate. Let it sit for a minute to allow the chocolate to soften.
4. Gently whisk the chocolate and cream together until smooth and glossy. Add the vanilla extract and continue to mix until well combined.
5. Allow the chocolate mixture to cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally to prevent a skin from forming.
6. In a separate bowl, whip the remaining heavy cream with the granulated sugar until soft peaks form.
7. Take a dollop of the whipped cream and gently fold it into the chocolate mixture to lighten it.
8. Gradually fold in the remaining whipped cream, being careful not to deflate the mixture.
9. Once fully incorporated, spoon the Mitternachtstraum into individual serving glasses or bowls. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or until set.
10. When ready to serve, garnish with fresh berries for a burst of color and a hint of tartness that complements the rich chocolate perfectly.
