At this point, brush the inside, including the edges, of the small molds 4. Place them on a tray and let them harden in the refrigerator for 1 hour. After this time, take the molds back, make sure the chocolate is firm, and then gently remove them from the molds 5. Meanwhile, work on the cream: also chop the milk chocolate 6,
place it in a bain-marie 7 until it is completely melted. In a separate bowl, place the mascarpone, flavor it with the seeds extracted from the vanilla bean 8 and with the Rum 9 mix with a spatula to combine.
Pour the melted milk chocolate into the bowl with the mascarpone 10, mix again until you obtain a homogeneous cream 11. Transfer the cream into a piping bag with a star-shaped nozzle and let it set in the refrigerator for about 1 hour.
