Leave to cool before slipping off the ring. You can eat this right away, but it will be even better next day if left overnight in the fridge first.
Remarks
You can make this with milk chocolate instead of dark, if you prefer.

Fancy even more chocolate? Use chocolate sweetcrust pastry instead of the usual plain.
Keeping: 2 or 3 days in the fridge, covered with plastic film.
