Chocolate-flavored whipped cream has an intense chocolate flavor and works perfectly as a topping for cakes or an ice cream sundae. It also works very well as a perfect topping for a delicious coffee, or (for chocolate lovers) simply for spooning as a small dessert.
Prepare this delicious chocolate-flavored whipped cream in just a 4-5 minutes, and use any chocolate bar you like. We use a small piece of leftover dark couverture for today's recipe, giving the whipped cream an exquisite flavor!
What I particularly like about this version is that it is visually very appealing.

🥘 Ingredients
- Heavy whipping cream - go for a high fat content here, to achieve the perfect texture.
- Powdered sugar
- Grated chocolate - preferably dark chocolate from a brand of your liking.
See the recipe card for quantities.
🔪 Instructions
Pour the whipped cream and icing sugar into a tall mixing bowl.
Then grate in the chocolate. With the small amount of heavy cream used for this recipe, a small amount of chocolate (approx. 10 g) is sufficient.
Make an effort here and grate the chocolate yourself. Chocolate sprinkles or (unsweetened) cocoa powder are far less suitable for this recipe and deliver a far less good taste experience.
Now whip the ingredients together until stiff peaks form. As with all our cream variations, we recommend pouring the chocolate whipped cream into a piping bag and using it immediately after preparation.
If you still have some of this delicious homemade whipped cream left over, store the leftovers in the fridge for up to three days.

💭 Top tip
Chocolate sprinkles or cocoa powder are not recommended for this recipe, as they may not provide the desired flavor. We highly recommend grating the chocolate yourself.
🙋🏻 FAQ
You can store this chocolate whipped cream in the fridge for up to three days.
The taste depends very much on the type and quality of the chocolate used. The better the quality, the better and more intense the taste. White chocolate offers a very sweet taste, whereas dark chocolate can quickly slide into a bitter taste if it is not of good quality. We recommend using either Criollo chocolate or your favorite chocolate for dark chocolate.
The easiest way to stabilize whipped cream is to use powdered sugar or cornstarch when whipping it up.
Furthermore, make sure that the whipping cream is cold.
Use only cold heavy cream when piping to ensure the cream gets an excellent shape.
Absolutely! Try strawberry syrup, Vodka, cinnamon, Irish cream, or Cointreau, for a change of pace!

I eat this cream straight from a jar 🤣 I use it for hot and cold chocolate but always make extra as a jar in the fridge for a couple of days is my kind of heaven. Thanks for the recipe.
