This is definitely interesting and a very forgiving method which is great. I was never into chocolate desserts much but I like the sound of this because it's so simple and dark chocolate has long been my preference.

I’ve made candy with milk before. I don’t think milk ruins my taste for dessert like dishes. However I love butter on almost anything and everything, and if I can get a way work using heavy cream over milk in some recipes I’ll do just that. It’s probably my preference and the excuse of certain cultural heritages I’ve been influenced by since I was a wee child. As unhealthy as that all sounds I wouldn’t change much about the situation. I’m stubborn as all to heck and I don’t see a need with the way I live or anyone affecting things to where I must make drastic decisions in regards to My fat intake via butter and whole milk or heavy whipping creams etc mostly because someone other than myself was impacted by the situation. However I do feel like this recipe here that has been quite effortlessly and effectively shown with appreciation and enthusiasm that it should just be followed exactly as described. I’m not one to want to disregard directions especially in a dessert I’ve never made before. I think that the original version of this tastey treat sounds lovely and worth making without substituting water with milk. I image there would be interest in my part to perhaps experiment with coffee but not until I have absolutely perfected the method of making this mouse with the chocolate and the water, for it is simple yet considerably convenient and that makes it even more attractive to me that’s it’s made with water. I’m definitely a confectionery diva and should have considered the bad rap I have for a sweet tooth in this comment but it is what it is. I’m also working on my narcissism to be more noticed by anyone who takes opportunity to invoke their thoughts over or about me. I told myself and my friends that I’d try and make a more conscientious effort to express my narcissism in a narrative that is explainable and understandable if possible. Better yet if I remember honestly as my OCPD and histrionic behaviors tend to outshine the issue. Usually when I over step boundaries I feel like perhaps I should be acknowledged or encouraged to seek discipline at that point if I feel that petty about it. Yikes this was not a news worth sharing let even necessary but here I am typing away like a lil prick oops 💩 I’m baddie then cuz I say so daddy…mother marzipan need to be covered all up in this delight and licked clean how about that baby hope you read my intensive remark and was somewhat entertained. I plan on generating more even if annoying or am a lil shit or better yet a dip shit lol since we gonna bend me over and dip me in this chocolate sauce mess

Hey! I love your videos and this one is not an exception! I just wanted to give a tip on the editing side. In the parts of the video when you're talking to the camera, the sound of your voice mixes a lot with the sound of the room you're filming in. I understand this could be a stylistic choice, so don't take my comment as an imposition. But if it's not a choice, and if you are using software from the Adobe suite, you could try the Podcast Enhance Speech tool on their website and it makes a huge difference in terms of sound quality. I hope this helps

I tried with 100% baking chocolate bar and added about a tsp of cocoa butter solids. Used hot water from the kettle like he did and it worked in maybe about 3 minutes with the ice bath before I removed. Unfortunately I didnt add enough sweetner, so next time I'll do the agave up front... When I tried adding agave after softening it would not firm up. I think my ratios were off. First I added more cacao butter thinking it needed more fat to set up with added water and agave, but that didn't do the trick... Then I melted some chocolate baking chips and added into the mixture to soften and then ice bath one more time but no dice... Is there a writtten ratio anywhere? Ty!
