Chocolate cream can be used to decorate cakes and pastries. Alternatively, it can be served in bowls as a standalone dessert.

Pour the cream into a saucepan and slowly heat it over low heat for about 5 minutes. Be careful not to let the cream boil!
Break or chop the chocolate into small pieces. Add the chocolate pieces to the warmed cream and cook over low heat, stirring constantly with a hand whisk, for about 5 minutes or until the chocolate is completely melted. Finally, add the rum to the chocolate cream, mix well, and remove the saucepan from the heat. Let the chocolate cream cool to room temperature.
Pour the cooled cream into a bowl, cover it with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 6 hours.
Take the bowl with the cream out of the refrigerator and whip it at medium speed for about 3 minutes.
Serve the whipped chocolate cream in bowls or use it to prepare another dessert.
