This light refreshing mousse is very easy to make and is so delicious. I have also made it with dark chocolate, but the white chocolate version is much richer.
INGREDIENTS
250g White Chocolate
250ml Double cream
1 egg white
1 teaspoon peppermint essence (or more according to taste)
Chocolate coated mint leaves to decorate.
METHOD
Melt chocolate in a bowl over a saucepan of simmering water. When its all melted, allow to cool but not set.
In another bowl, whisk cream, egg whites and peppermint essence until consistancy of a thick cream
Gently fold the cream mixture into the melted cooled chocolate. Do a taste check and add more essence if required. I tend to find that some mint essences are stronger than others.
Divide between 6 small glasses (ideally shot glasses) and allow to chill in fridge for an hour.
Decorate with a small mint leaf on top. You can use a small amount of the melted white chocolate to coat the leaves and allow to set.
