👩🍳 Instructions
1️⃣ Melt the chocolate & peanut butter

In a heatproof bowl over simmering water (double boiler) or in short bursts in the microwave, gently melt chocolate and peanut butter together. Stir until smooth.
2️⃣ Whip the cream
-
In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream with vanilla, sugar, and a pinch of salt until soft peaks form.
3️⃣ Fold together
-
Let the chocolate-peanut butter mixture cool slightly.

Gently fold it into the whipped cream until fully combined and airy—don’t overmix.
4️⃣ Chill

Spoon into serving cups or a dish. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1–2 hours until set.
5️⃣ Serve & garnish

Top with crushed peanuts, cocoa powder, or chocolate shavings before serving.

For extra richness, use half milk chocolate and half dark chocolate.
-
Can be made ahead and stored in the fridge up to 2 days.

For a lighter version, substitute half the cream with whipped coconut cream.
