Ingredients for Chocolate Cream with Cream Cheese
- 7 oz cream cheese (like Philadelphia)
- 3.5 oz dark chocolate (or milk chocolate)
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tbsp butter
Preparation of Chocolate Cream with Cream Cheese
To prepare the chocolate cream with cream cheese, first keep the cream cheese at room temperature.
Chop the dark chocolate into small pieces and place it in a small bowl, melt it in a double boiler.
You can use a saucepan with 2 inches of water and place the bowl on top without it touching the water.
Or place it in the microwave at medium power for 30 seconds at a time, remove, stir, and continue to melt it.
It takes at most 2 minutes.
Once the chocolate is melted add the cold butter in pieces and quickly mix with a rubber spatula.
Finally, incorporate the powdered sugar and cream cheese and always mix with the rubber spatula to combine all the ingredients.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the chocolate cream with cream cheese rest in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
To prepare the chocolate cream with cream cheese using milk chocolate, choose a high-quality chocolate.
Melt the chocolate as I explained for the dark one, incorporate the powdered sugar and cream cheese.
Then DO NOT use the butter (milk chocolate has plenty), mix very well with a rubber spatula.
Let the chocolate and cream cheese cream rest in the fridge as much as possible.
