Toblerone Mousse.

The honey and almond nougat in a Toblerone gives this mousse a pleasant and morish twist.

Ingredients

200g/7oz Toblerone, 425ml/ 3/4 pt double cream, the whites of 3 medium eggs.

Plus, extra double cream and Toblerone triangles for decoration.

Method

Melt the Toblerone in a bowl over a pan of just-boiled water.
Whip cream using an electric hand whisk until it just holds its shape.
Fold cream into the chocolate using a metal spoon.
Whisk the egg whites until stiff.
Fold the stiff egg whites into the chocolate-cream mixture until completely blended in.
Divide between six glass bowls or dollop into one big one. Then chill in the fridge for at least an hour.
Decorate with swirls of whipped double cream and a Toblerone triangle before serving.

Puddle Pudding Chocolatey, gooey and messy. But it's quick to make. Dollop it into a bowl. Dress it up with a drizzle of double cream, a sprinkle of sieved icing sugar and a strawberry, and your friends and family will think you've taken ages to prepare them a fancy dessert. Serves 4 to 6 Ingredients 2 Medium eggs 75g (3oz) Dark Chocolate, 50% cocoa solids 2 teaspoons instant coffee granules 1 tablespoon cocoa powder 3 tablespoons boiling water 100g (4oz) butter, at room temperature 100g (4oz) soft light brown sugar 100g (4oz) self-raising flour Sauce 25g (1oz) cocoa powder 1 tablespoon boiling water 300ml (10 fl oz) milk 100g (4oz) soft light brown sugar This is an unusual pudding as the cake mixture goes on the bottom and the cocoa flavoured milk sits on top. However, once it is baked the cocoa flavoured milk ends up at the bottom of the sponge as a thick chocolate custard. Look out a 1.4 litre (2pt) oval ovenproof baking dish and grease well. Set the oven to 150C, ...

Toblerone pastries

Toblerone pastries. These are a favourite with my teenage sons, and they're often gone before they've had a chance to cool. They are quick and easy to make and spinning them with some milk chocolate will make them look extra special. Ingredients One 150g Toblerone, or if you want to go large - a 360g one. 500g block of Jus-Rol puff pastry 1 egg, beaten Caster sugar, for sprinkling flour for rolling out 1 small bar of milk chocolate, melted (optional) Makes approximately 11 Preheat oven to 200C, 400F, gas mark 6 and grease and line two baking trays. Cut up the Toblerone, so each peak is separate. (Since they have cut the number of peaks on the Toblerone, you will need to cut off the section of chocolate between each peak). I really have no idea what you could possibly do with the leftover sections! 😊 Dust a work surface with flour and using a rolling pin, roll out the block of puff pastry to approximately 12". Depending on the size of To...

Cake pops. These are fun, quick and easy. They are great for kids parties and by putting them in cake pop bags, they can take the place of the hastily serviette wrapped birthday cake in the party bag.
