Heat the whole milk just until scalding, ensuring it does not boil.

Pour the hot milk over the chocolate and let it sit undisturbed for about 45 seconds.

Vigorously stir the chocolate and milk mixture until fully blended, using a whisk.

Check the temperature of the chocolate mixture; it should be around 95 to 100 degrees Fahrenheit.

If the chocolate mixture is too cold, re-warm it in a gentle water bath until it feels warm to the touch.

Whip the heavy whipping cream on medium speed until it is billowy and full of air, but does not hold peaks, for about 53 seconds using a KitchenAid 5 quart mixer.

Gently fold the whipped cream into the warmer chocolate mixture until no streaks of cream are visible.
