Method
Note: This recipe requires an additional 60 minutes refrigeration time.
- Heat the chocolate in a bowl placed over a pan of gently simmering water. Make sure that water is not in direct contact with bowl. Stir gently and regularly until the chocolate has melted. Once the chocolate has melted and becomes smooth, remove the bowl from the heat. Set aside to cool for 5 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, stir together the glucose, egg yolks and 3 tbsp of warm water. Once combined, fold the mixture into the melted chocolate. Whip the Western Star Thickened Cream and icing sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Gently fold the cream into the chocolate mixture, being careful not to over mix.
- Divide the mixture into 6-8 serving glasses and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- When ready, serve with extra whipped cream and a dusting of cocoa.
More Tips
- If the mousse has been chilled for longer than an hour, remove for 20 minutes before serving.

Should I grease my baking tins?
This helps stop food sticking. Brush the tin with melted butter or use some baking paper with a little butter on it to rub around the inside of the tin.
