Sugar - approx 2/3 cup (increase or decrease as per your taste)
Dark Chocolate - 2/3 cup (you can increase it to 1 cup and even more for intense chocolate taste)
Espresso - 5 tablespoons
I hope this helps, have a great day ahead!

Hi, did you use Amul cream for this ?
Farrukh Aziz
MG, I have used Elle&Wire cream for this, not Amul
MG
Isn't that expensive ? Is Elle & wire whooped or fresh cream ? Will it make a difference if I use Amul cream ?
MG
Sorry I meant is it whipped cream or fresh cream?
Farrukh Aziz
Indeed it is expensive, but for best result i would recommend you using it
Amul you can use , but whipping amul cream is bit tedious task and does not give that best whipping results
