Chocolate Mousse

125gm cooking chocolate
4 eggs - separated
2 tablespoons caster sugar
little cream (optional)
2 tblsp brandy or rum (optional)

Melt the chocolate over a bowl of hot water (you can melt it in the microwave but if you do it too fast you will ruin the chocolate – I always seem to do that!)
Add the egg yolks and sugar and beat for 2mins or until smooth.
Add the brandy or rum and beat for another 2 mins
Remove from heat.
Beat the egg whites until stiff and fold in the chocolate mixture.
Pour into individual glasses or one large bowl

This makes 4 individual servings
