Easy chocolate mousse

[dontknowwhat2callmyself]

Does anyone have a recipe for a quick and easy chocolate mousse please....

Chocolate Angel Delight

There's a delia cheat one .. hang on til I see if I can find it

She uses ricotta but I use marscapone and she uses creme fraiche but I use double cream

www.deliaonline.com/recipes/type-of-dish/desserts/quickly-does-it/coffee-ricotta-mousse.html

I don't put the coffee in sometimes I leave it out altogether, sometimes I put Baileys in

I maintain that chocolate Angel Delight on a biscuit base, topped with chocolate buttons, is the tastiest thing ever taught in a school cookery lesson. Very sophisticated too if you're looking at dinner party puddings :o

Thanks everyone I think I will go with the Nigella one it sounds yum I would never have thought of using marshmallows. The Delia one looks good too. Not sure what Mil would think if I served up Angel Delight

She need never know :o

That nigella one is pretty nice - I used it when preg. V sweet

Hmmm Harry that's true

Bit late but here is the basic recipe:

For each person
1 egg separated
60g plain chocolate, melted

Mix melted chocolate into egg yolk.
Whisk white until stiff and fold in.

Add a dash of Cointreau, brandy, whisky, kirsch etc if required.

Put in the fridge until set.

No need to add butter, sugar, cream etc.

Thanks tb could be a healthier and easier option . I did try the Nigella recipe which had a lovely mousse texture but a very very rich chocolate taste.
