Try this:
1 ts gelatin
1 tb cold water
2 tb boiling water
� cup sugar
� cup cocoa
1 cup whipping cream
1 tb vanilla

Sprinkle gelatin over cold water & let it stand till soft. Stir in boiling water till dissolved. Mix sugar and cocoa in a bowl. Add cream and vanilla. Beat till stiff peaks form. Fold in gelatin mixture and chill. Eat. (Conversions to Imperial here: http://www.thefoody.com/glossary/convert.html )

Or try softened gelatin with whipped cream, cream cheese beaten with cocoa powder or melted chocolate, and vanilla. You can make a digestive biscuit base for this - crush bics with melted butter and sugar in a pie case, fill with the topping, chill to set and serve with decoration on top - almonds, choc swirls, etc.

hi, for a quick chocolate mousse i just whip up double cream until you can make peaks in it, then melt milk chocolate and mix well together, leave in the fridge to set. simply delious.

[sissy2708]

110g/4oz plain chocolate (70% cocoa solids)
290ml/� pint double cream
290ml/� pint ready-made custard

Method
1. Melt the chocolate in a bowl over a pan of simmering water. Remove when melted and leave to cool slightly.
2. Whip the cream until stiff.
3. In a separate pan, gently warm the custard.
4. Add the custard to the cooled chocolate and combine to form a smooth mixture.
5. Fold in the whipped cream a spoonful at a time.
6. Divide the mixture between serving glasses and place in the fridge to chill.
7. Serve with a biscuit such as almond thins.

I usually add some liquer to the mix. Also I serve with oiranges which have been soaking in Cointrau for a couple of days - fab!
