# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • This drink lets you turn your favorite cold brew into dessert without any guilt.
  • The velvety chocolate cream transforms ordinary coffee into a treat you will want to share—or keep all to yourself.
02 -
  • If you overwhip the cream, it turns stiff or grainy—go slow and stop at soft peaks.
  • A pinch of salt is magical; without it, the chocolate cream tastes flat and overly sweet.
03 -
  • Use a chilled metal bowl for whipping—the cream will hold its airy texture longer.
  • Let the chocolate cream rest in the fridge for a few minutes if you want thicker peaks.
