FAQ
Q: Can I use milk chocolate instead of dark chocolate?
A: Yes, but reduce the added sugar slightly to balance the sweetness.

Q: My chocolate cream is too runny—what happened?
A: Be sure the cream cooks long enough to thicken, and whisk constantly to prevent lumps.

Q: Can I freeze this dessert?
A: Freezing is not recommended as the texture of the whipped cream and chocolate cream will change upon thawing.

Q: What’s the origin of Chocolat Liégeois?
A: Despite the name, it’s a French dessert—named in honor of Liège, Belgium, as a tribute after World War I.
