Last year I made chocolate snowflakes filled with chocolate mousse that were yummy! so when the lovely peeps at Wholeport sent me a houses mould I knew I wanted to fill them with chocolate mousse but as they were deeper than the snowflake mould I decided to also fill them with a raspberry mouse so they were not to rich. I tried to make the layer of chocolate thinner on the houses than the snowflakes but sadly I got it too thin at the bases of some of the houses which caused some of the chocolate to break off, so I have adjusted the recipe to include a little more chocolate.
Chocolate House mousse (makes 6 Houses)
Ingredients
- 100g white chocolate drops
- Aqua chocolate colouring (must be chocolate colouring as regular food colouring will cause chocolate to seize and ruin)
- 300g double cream
- Pinch of caster sugar
- 300g milk chocolate drops
- 200g double cream
- Pinch of caster sugar
- 200g fresh raspberries blended into a puree
- Icing sugar for dusting
Cooking instructions
- Melt white chocolate and stir in food colouring.
- Pour coloured white chocolate into moulds and, using a brush, coat sides of moulds in chocolate and leave to set.
- Place 300g of cream in a bowl with a pinch of caster sugar and whip until soft peaks form.
- Melt 200g of milk chocolate in the microwave on a low heat or in a double boiler on the hob, continuously stirring so as not to overheat.
- Stir melted chocolate into whipped cream until you have an even coloured mousse.
- Spoon mousse into chocolate coated house moulds and place in fridge to firm.
- Place 200g of cream in a bowl with a pinch of caster sugar and whip until soft peaks form.
- Stir blended raspberries into whipped cream until you have an even coloured mousse.
- Spoon mousse into chocolate coated house moulds on top of chocolate mousses and place in fridge to firm.
- Melt remaining 100g of milk chocolate and coat the top of the mousse with milk chocolate to seal in mousse.
- Place in fridge to set.
- Turn out house filled moulds just before serving and dust with sieved icing sugar.
