Chocolate mousse

4floz double cream
85g dark chocolate (about 70g if u dont like the taste of bitter dark choc)

Melt the chocolate in a bowl over a pan of simmering water. Once melted, remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly. (with the british weather at its best, i just let it cooled off by the window :)

Place the cream in a large bowl and, using an electric whisk, beat until soft peaks form when the whisk is removed. (be careful not to over-whisk it (i think thats the right way to describe it) i think i did, thats why the cream wasnt sooo soft.

Fold the melted chocolate into the cream to create a marbled effect.

Spoon the chocolate mousse into serving dishes and refrigerate until ready to serve.


and there u have it. in my opinion, the easiest and the tastiest dessert ever.. i mean.. it basically took me about 10 15 minutes. its really easy.
but, i aint a big fan of dark chocolate. i wanted to add a lil bit of sugar, coz i dont like the bitter taste of dark chocolate. but i was rushing ( i wanted to watch top gear) so i totally forgotten about it. but it still tasted good. esp when u eat it with a banana!! hell yeah!!

been a relaxing 2 days for me. days off from work. so i did laundry, cleaned room. catch up with people.. and just basically make myself a cuppa and watch reruns of scrubs.and top gear. and whose line issit anyway.and desperate housewife.and the OC.and airport.

hell, the brit telly sure does love reruns dont they?
