Ingredients

5 total
  • 1 tsp of unsalted butter
  • 250 ml of double cream
  • 150 g of dark chocolate, chopped, plus extra 50g shavings to serve
  • 2 medium eggs, separated

Method

6 steps

  1. Step 1

    Put the chocolate in a heatproof bowl and set over a pan of simmering water to melt, ensuring the base of the bowl doesn’t touch the water. Remove from the heat, allow the chocolate to cool for 5 mins then beat in the egg yolks and butter.

  2. Step 2

    Lightly whip the cream and Baileys until soft peaks are formed, then fold half into the chocolate mix.

  3. Step 3

    Whisk the egg whites until just stiff, then carefully fold into the chocolate mixture.

  4. Step 4

    Spoon half the chocolate mousse into four medium serving glasses, followed by half the chocolate shavings and then half the whipped Baileys and cream.

  5. Step 5

    Repeat the layers and top with the remaining chocolate shavings.

  6. Step 6

    Place in the fridge covered for 3 hours or overnight. No picking! (well, maybe just a bit…) Serve with a flourish to the sound of oohs and ahs.
