A really rich, velvety smooth mousse to serve on special occasions.
Ingredients
4 egg yolks
l25g castor sugar
275ml milk
5ml (1 tsp) vanilla essence
10ml (2 tsp) gelatin
20ml (1 Tbs) instant coffee
l00g Cadbury Bournville chocolate
284ml double cream
6 Cadbury Flake's or chocolate decorations
A piping bag and star nozzle 5-6 glasses
Method
Whisk the egg yolks and sugar together well. Heat the milk and
essence almost to boiling point, then whisk slowly on to the eggs. Pour into a
pan and stir the custard over a low heat until thickened a little, but do not
allow it to boil.
Sprinkle gelatin over the hot custard and allow it to dissolve before
straining to ensure it is quite smooth. Dissolve the coffee in 2 tablespoons hot
water and melt the chocolate in this. Whisk into the custard. Cool before
folding in the lightly whipped cream.
Refrigerate until beginning to set, then pipe or spoon the mousse
into the glasses. Decorate with Flake or a made chocolate decoration. Serve
chilled.
