Ingredients

  • 200g dark chocolate (70% cocoa), chopped
  • 3 tablespoons instant espresso powder
  • 3 tablespoons hot water
  • 4 large eggs, separated and at room temperature
  • 50g caster sugar
  • 300ml double cream, divided
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2 tablespoons icing sugar
  • Chocolate shavings for garnish
  • 6 fresh raspberries for garnish

Instructions

1

Dissolve the instant espresso powder in hot water and set aside to cool slightly.

2

Melt the dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes.

3

Stir the espresso mixture into the melted chocolate until well combined, then whisk in the egg yolks one at a time.

4

In a clean bowl, whip 200ml of the double cream with vanilla extract until soft peaks form, then gently fold into the chocolate mixture.

5

In another clean bowl, whisk the egg whites with a pinch of salt until foamy, then gradually add the caster sugar and beat until stiff glossy peaks form.

6

Fold one-third of the egg whites into the chocolate mixture to lighten it, then gently fold in the remaining whites until no streaks remain.

7

Divide the mousse evenly among 6 small glass jars or ramekins and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until set.

8

Before serving, whip the remaining 100ml double cream with icing sugar until soft peaks form.

9

Top each mousse jar with a dollop of whipped cream, chocolate shavings, and a fresh raspberry.
