SUNTORY TOKI CHANTILLY

1000g Cream

500g Mascarpone

175g Confectioners Sugar

50g Vanilla paste

4g Salt

30g Suntory Toki Whisky

Immersion blend everything together so there are no mascarpone lumps.

Assembly and finishing

Pour about 4oz of the warm pot de creme mixture in bowls and let set in the refrigerator.

Once set, whip the Suntory chantilly.

Using a large round tip, pipe a large mound, pulling up at the end to achieve a tapered, pointed effect.

Sprinkle the chocolate soil on top and serve.
