Notes
Though in the video I heated the cream and chocolate together, ideally you want to warm the cream and pour it over the chocolate to keep it from seizing. Also there were a couple of people who asked me about what kind of tart tins I was using, I'm using 4" tins with removable bottoms, you can get them here.
