Chocolate Mousse!!!

Serves six

Ingredients:

320g (12oz) strong dark eating chocolate

30g (1oz) unsalted butter

6 eggs

pinch of salt

Method:

Separate the eggs, placing the whites into a roomy bowl.

Break the chocolate into small pieces and put them in another roomy bowl set over a pan with a centimetre of barely simmering water. Add the butter and allow both to gently melt. Stir occasionally.

In the meantime, add a pinch of salt to the egg whites and whisk to the soft peak (floppy) stage. In a separate bowl, break up the yolks.

When the chocolate and butter have melted and have been allowed to cool for a couple of minutes stir in the yolks.

Cut and fold in the whites in three batches until seamlessly combined. Pour into ramekins and refrigerate for a couple of hours to set

Hope you enjoy it!!!

Love,
Carolyn <3
