chocolate, chilli and coffee mousse.

Ok so I didn't put any alcohol in this as the recipe says and I don't think it needs it. It's very rich but worth the 6 syns

 Ingredients

• 125g dark chocolate
• 4 medium eggs, separated*
• 4 level tbsp sweetener
• ½ tsp dried red chilli flakes
• 2 tsp instant coffee granules dissolved in 1 tbsp water
• 2 tbsp cognac or brandy
• fat free natural fromage frais, to serve
• 1 level tsp cocoa powder, to dust
• orange zest, to decorate

Method

1. Break the chocolate into small pieces, place in a large heatproof bowl and melt over a pan of gently simmering water. Remove from the heat and leave to cool slightly at room temperature.
2. Meanwhile whisk the egg whites in a large bowl until stiff but not too dry.
3. Whisk the egg yolks, sweetener, chilli flakes, instant coffee mixture and cognac or brandy in a separate bowl and spoon into the melted chocolate, mixing well.
4. Lightly fold in the egg whites with a metal spoon until well combined.
5. Spoon this mixture into six tea cups or dessert dishes and place in the freezer for 2-3 hours or until just set.
6. To serve, top each serving with a spoonful of fromage frais, lightly dust with cocoa powder and decorate with orange zest.

Tip: *Pregnant women, the elderly and babies are advised not to eat raw or partially cooked eggs.
