RECIPE BLOG! Chocolate Mousse

(Serves 4-6)

INGREDIENTS:
120g of The Chocolate Box's Milk (or Dark) Chocolate
4 Separated Eggs
15g butter
Rum to taste
Whipping cream for decoration.

METHOD:
Break the chocolate into smaller pieces (or you can use chocolate pastilles) so they will melt more easily. Grate a portion of the chocolate and put aside for sprinkling. Place chocolate pieces in a bowl with butter. Cook on "high" in your microwave for 1-2 mins, or over a saucepan of boiled water (use two saucepans and dip the second into the boiled water, making sure no water gets into the chocolate mixure) and stir once, half-way through cooking. Whilst chocolate is still melted stir in egg yolks and rum, whisk egg whites until stiff, and fold into the mixture. Pour mixture into 4-6 individual dishes and chill until set. If you wish to decorate it with whipped cream, buy some whipping cream and whip it until it becomes stiff. Decorate with whipped cream and chocolate sprinkles to serve.
