I've been thinking of recipes using cocoa recently, but cocoa has a sandy texture, so I came up with this. 0 Take a look at my blog (it is in Japanese but it has big photos) http://marimocafe.exblog.jp/16073528/

You'll get a smoother texture if you whisk the cream in a bowl sitting in ice-cold water. Whisk to a loose consistency in step 2, and whisk again in step 6. It's best when the shine is about to disappear and it has a fluffy texture. Recipe by Marimo1016
