White Chocolate and passionfruit mousse eggs

These white chocolate and passionfruit mousse eggs are fantastic!! Not only do they taste delicious but also look beautiful. Definately a recipe to use to impress someone!!

I used six 6-hole (1tbsp/20ml) easter egg molds for this recipe. Or you can makes eggs in six batches. You will need about 3 passion-fruits for this recipe.

Ingredients

• 300g white cooking chocolate, melted
• 100g white eating chocolate, chopped roughly
• 20g unsalted butter
• 60ml or 1/4 cup passion-fruit pulp
• 1 egg, separated
• 160ml or 2/3 cup whipping cream, whipped

Method

1. Using a small paint brush, paint melted chocolate over inside of each mold. To do this use clean and dry plastic Easter egg molds which are available from specialty cookware shops. Using a small artist's brush dipped in melted chocolate, brush a thick, even layer of chocolate inside each mold; set at room temperature.To remove the eggs, carefully invert the molds onto a board and gently tap the eggs with your finger until the eggs release from the molds.
2. Meanwhile, stir chopped chocolate, butter and the passion fruit pulp in a medium heatproof bowl over medium saucepan of simmering water until smooth. Stir in the egg yolk. Leave to cool.
3. Beat the egg white in a small bowl with an electric whisk to make things easier for yourself! Whisk until the egg white makes soft peaks. Fold the egg white and cream into the chocolate mixture, in two batches,
4. Divide the mousse among the eggs. Refrigerate for 3 hours or overnight.
5. Serve drizzled with extra passion fruit pulp, if you like.

These are truly fantastic and hope anyone who tries to create them feels the same!
