Step 1: You will need.
- 150 g dark cooking chocolate
- 3 tbsp cream
- 20 g unsalted butter
- 200 ml cream
- 1 tbsp orange zest
- 2 tbsp sugar-free dark cocoa powder
- 1/2 ltr water (approx)
- 2 orange slices
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp unsalted butter
- 1 small cooking pan
- 1 large bowl
- 1 medium bowl
- 1 electric beater
- 1 whisk
- 1 large knife
- 1 fork
- 1 spatula
- 4 bowls for serving
- 1 small ladle
- 1 small frying pan
- 1 chopping board
Step 2: Heat water.
Begin by placing a small cooking pan on a medium heat and fill it with water. Allow it to simmer.
Step 3: Prepare chocolate.
Using the knife and the chopping board, cut the chocolate into cubes. Place into a bowl and add the cream and butter.
Step 4: Melt chocolate.
Transfer the ingredients in the bowl into the simmering water. Allow to simmer for 3 minutes before stirring gently to melt the chocolate and butter. When creamy, remove from the heat.
Step 5: Prepare mousse.
Add 200ml of cream to a bowl and whisk until stiff. Add the lemon zest and cocoa powder and combine. Add the melted chocolate from the other bowl and combine. Once the same colour, ladle into 4 separate serving bowls. Store in the fridge for 8 hours.
Step 6: Make caramelised oranges.
Before serving, place a small frying pan on a medium heat and melt a knob of unsalted butter. While it melts, cut and add orange slices to the saucepan. Sprinkle with a tablespoon of sugar and allow to caramelise on both sides.
Step 7: Serve.
Add 2 slices of orange to each serving bowl and pour over a little juice from the frying pan. Serve when the oranges are hot and enjoy with shortbread biscuits.
