The recipe didn't state to let the chocolate cool before topping with the white topping. I think they left out a very important step. When I added the white topping, it melted in to a soupy mess. I refrigerated them and the white topping hardened a little but they weren't pretty. I'll make these again using a pre-formed phyllo dough cup and will certainly let the chocolate cool before adding the white topping. I'll update my review when I make the changes. To anyone reading this review, let the chocolate in the cup cool before you add the white topping!!

The recipe didn't state to let the chocolate mixture placed into the tart cup cool before topping with the white chocolate mix. As soon as I put the white topping on, it turned into a soupy mess. I will make these again, using a pre-made phillo pastry cup and will be certain to let the chocolate cool before topping with the white. I'll review again after I make the adjustments I think will improve this recipe.

The picture looked beautiful and I thought this would be a great desert to bring to Christmas dinner. Unfortunately, although I followed the directions precisely, the cream mixture would not whip up and looked more like a liquid pudding. I went to the store and bought new whipping cream and white chocolate and tried again. Same thing. I have no idea what I am doing wrong but my desert looks nothing like the picture. It is in the fridge and I will determine if it is edible once it sets up, if it does. So disappointed!
