Easy easy easy, to cook,  to eat. Yum

Followed recipe  but used lite cream as that was alll ll i had. We all enjoyed it very much.

Will make this regularly, next time might add contreau and make it adults only.

Great for visitors as can be made and left in the fridge.

So it turned out thick and luscious like the picture in the book Hally - even using a light cream?  Did you take a photo?

[Halex]

No i ddnt. Came back from lunch after telling boys no desert here desert at home,  wait till you get home. It was hoed into while i was still  serving up. Served up in glasses, yes thick and luscious and i poured cream over the top. If theres any left, will take a photo, but think there might just be scrapings in the bowl.  Too good not to eat immediately.

Better than no photo though Hally - it gives an idea of how thick it is compared to the one in the EDC.

Made this yesterday - first time making a mousse so not sure what it normally looks like (I rarely eat it either because for some reason I never liked it).

Having said that, it was a quick and simple recipe which tasted delicious!

For some reason. it looked 'speckled' like the egg white didn't incorporate/dissolve into chocolate mixture. Did I do something wrong or is that normal.

Here is a photo with frozen raspberries (straight out of freezer):

Made this tonight - delicious!! Mine was a bit speckled as well - but it tasted devine.

I only used 180g of chocolate because thats all I had - and I thought it was quite rich (didn't stop me eating lots though!). I think next time I would reduce the chocolate slightly more again.

Here's a photo - I made 4 serves of this size...so quite large. Probably better to make 8 smaller serves and serve with some raspberry sauce or something like that.
