Stir ¾ cup cream, chocolate and honey in a heavy-based medium-sized saucepan over low heat until the chocolate melts and the mixture is smooth.

In a large bowl, beat 1¼ cups cream until soft peaks form.
Fold half the cream into the chocolate mixture.
When totally folded in, carefully fold in the remaining cream mixture.
Then fold in chopped nougat.
