Ingredients
* 125g Dark
Chocolate (70%)
* 30g
Peanut Butter (smooth)
* 3 The
Happy Egg Co. eggs (large) - separated
* 50g
Golden caster sugar
* 100g Dark
chocolate – melted
* 25g
Salted peanuts – chopped
* Colourful
sugar strands or edible confetti
Method
1. Melt the
chocolate gently on a bain marie, then add the peanut butter, the sugar and the
3 egg yolks. Stir gently until smooth.
2. In a
separate bowl, using an electric hand whisk beat the egg whites until they form
a stiff peak.
3. Gently
fold the egg whites into the chocolate mixture and transfer into a clean bowl.
Cover with kitchen film and place in the fridge to set for a minimum of 3 hours,
or even overnight.
4. When the
mousse mixture is firm, transfer into a piping bag and pip into large egg cups.
Pile high and using a small palette knife or knife, shape it in an egg shape
(you can use egg shaped moulds for ease if you prefer).
5. Place in
the fridge to reset again for a couple of hours.
6. Melt the
remaining chocolate (100g) on a bain
marie – once melted leave to cool.
7. Once
completely cool, drizzle the melted chocolate over the top of your mousse eggs
and sprinkle the sugar strands and chopped peanuts over the top for added
crunch and decoration!
8. Serve
and enjoy.
