- Put the dark chocolate, sea salt flakes and 100ml whipping cream in a heatproof bowl over a pan of barely simmering water and melt without stirring. Remove from the heat, set aside for 2 mins, then stir to combine. Set aside for 10 mins or until cooled to around body temperature.
- Using a balloon whisk, slowly whisk 200ml double cream into the dark chocolate mixture until combined and just thick enough to spoon. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the remaining 100ml whipping cream and remaining 150ml double cream with the icing sugar and vanilla bean paste until it forms soft peaks. Add the tahini and whisk again until smooth.
- Fold the two mixtures together until just marbled. Spoon into glasses and scatter with the hazelnuts and sesame seeds to serve.
