Chocolate Mousse

Banana Layer

Dulce de Leche

Method

Chocolate Mousse

  1. 1

    Melt the Chocolate

    In a heatproof bowl, melt the dark chocolate over a pot of simmering water, stirring occasionally until completely smooth. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

  2. 2

    Whip the Cream

    In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream and granulated sugar until soft peaks form. Add vanilla extract and mix until combined.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Egg Whites

    In another clean bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.

  4. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    Carefully fold the melted chocolate into the whipped cream until no white streaks remain. Then gently fold in the beaten egg whites until incorporated.

  5. 5

    Chill the Mousse

    Spoon the mousse into serving glasses and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours until set.

Banana Layer

  1. 6

    Prepare the Bananas

    Peel and slice the ripe bananas. Drizzle with lemon juice to prevent browning and toss gently to coat.

  2. 7

    Layer the Bananas

    Once the mousse is set, layer the banana slices on top of the mousse in serving glasses.

Dulce de Leche

  1. 8

    Prepare the Dulce de Leche

    To make the dulce de leche, place the can of sweetened condensed milk (unopened) in a pot of water. Ensure the can is fully submerged and simmer for 2-3 hours, topping up the water as necessary. Alternatively, you can use store-bought dulce de leche.

  2. 9

    Add Dulce de Leche

    Allow the can to cool before opening. Drizzle the dulce de leche over the banana layer in each serving glass before serving.
