This easy mousse is inspired by the après-ski pairing of rich chocolate and bright green chartreuse liqueur. Everyone will be asking what's in it!
Method
-
Put the egg into a bowl and set the bowl over a pan of simmering water (do not let the bottom of the bowl touch the water). Whisk continuously over the gentle heat until it thickens. Fold into the melted chocolate.
-
Stir in the chartreuse until thoroughly combined. Allow to cool slightly.
-
Fold in the whipped cream until it is thoroughly mixed and no white streaks remain. Pour into serving glasses and chill in the fridge until ready to serve.
Ingredients
- 1 large free-range egg (preferably organic)
- 150g/5½oz dark chocolate, melted
- 2-3 tbsp chartreuse
- 250ml/9fl oz double cream, whipped to soft peaks
