I followed the instructions and the melted chocolate got chunky when mixed with the cold whipped cream.

I made this as directed and it turned out great! I love that it calls for just a few ingredients, yet it looks so pretty and tastes so good too.

As written I did not have enough whipped cream to cover the cake as shown in the picture for the top layer. I ended up whipping an additional cup heavy cream and 1\/4 cup confectioner's sugar for that layer.
