## Chef's notes
This started as a spontaneous kitchen experiment—an amalgamation of recipes from old cookbooks and online finds. My younger daughter wanted to surprise her sister with something quick but fancy ("It's a vibe, Mom."), and this is what we came up with. It’s quickly established itself as a go-to favorite: simple, rich, and deeply satisfying. It serves 4 (or 1, depending on the day; I am not here to judge). Tightly wrapped, it will keep up to 3 days in the fridge, but I bet it won't last that long!
## Details
- ⏲️ Prep time: 10 min
- 🍳 Cook time: 0 min
## Ingredients
- 1 cup (240mL) heavy whipping cream
- 1/4 cup (24g) cocoa powder
- 5 tbsp (38g) Confectioners (powdered) sugar
- 1/4 tsp (1.25mL) vanilla extract (optional)
- Flaky sea salt (optional, but excellent)
## Directions
1. 1. Whip the cream until frothy.
2. 2. Sift in cocoa and sugar, fold or gently mix (add vanilla if using).
3. 3. Whip to medium peaks (or stiff peaks, if that's more your thing). Chill and serve (topped with a touch of sea salt if you’re feeling fancy).
