Instructions

Working time approx. 10 minutes; Total time approx. 10 minutes

without egg

Melt the crumbled chocolate in the liquid cream (microwave on medium heat, checking frequently and stirring). Then mix well with a whisk. Season with cinnamon and cognac or rum. Refrigerate overnight and whip the next day with a hand mixer. If it’s too thick, thin with sweet cream if desired. I pour the mousse into tea glasses and garnish with a dollop of whipped cream, an amaretto cherry, and (in summer) a lemon balm leaf.
