Chocolate Mousse

Just for Luke, here's my chocolate mousse recipe:

Melt one large bar dark chocolate with a small packet (200g or so) of white marshmallows and half a tin of evaporated milk (Carnation or Ideal, depending where you are in the world). Whip the remaining milk until nice and frothy (it helps to chill it first). Mix the two together, put into your serving bowl and let it firm up in the fridge overnight.

You can decorate it with whipped cream and crumbled Peppermint Crisp before serving. You can also double this recipe, or triple it, depending on your chocolate cravings. Or add more chocolate, a nut-choc bar or similar etc. It's one of those throw-together things.

NOTE: The best bit is at the bottom of the dish, where the chocolate tends to settle in a rich layer. Make sure you're the last to be served and ask to lick the dish.
