Ingredients
- 200 g dark chocolate
- 265 ml double cream
- 8 Oreo cookies
- 12 pumpkin-shaped sweets to decorate
Instructions
- To make the mousse, add half of the cream to a pan set over a medium heat and bring it to the boil.
- Remove the pan from the heat.
- Break the chocolate bar into pieces and add them to the cream.
- Use a spatula to mix everything together until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
- Set it aside to cool down.
- Add the rest of the cream to a mixing bowl, and use a hand mixer to beat it until it holds stiff peaks.
- Once the chocolate has cooled, add the beaten cream to it, and use the spatula to gently incorporate the cream into the chocolate.
- Divide the mousse between 4 cups, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Use a sharp knife to remove the cream off the oreos, and add them to a ziploc bag.
- Use a rolling pin to crush the ores to fine crumbs.
- Once the chocolate mousse is firm, top each cup with crushed oreos and decorate with the sweets.
- Refrigerate again until the mousse is ready to be served.
Notes
- do not overbeat the cream, or it will separate - once you get stiff peaks, you can stop beating it
- make sure to cool the melted chocolate before it's mixed with the beaten cream, or you risk the cream melting and mixture not being moussy at all
- once the chocolate is cooled, add the cream to the chocolate and really gently incorporate it into the chocolate mixture, it's what makes it light and gives it the moussy texture
- always refrigerate the chocolate mousse before adding the crushed oreos to it so you can have a firm mousse, or the oreo crumbs could silk into the chocolate
