Chocolate and orange are a classic match, and this decadent mousse is just the thing to impress at a dinner party (or just a mid-week treat). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Serves: 4 people
Prep time: 20 minutes
Cooking time: 10 minutes<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Ingredients: <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

200g dark chocolate
500ml thickened cream
2 egg yolks
1 tsp grated orange zest
For the honeycomb
1 cup caster sugar
\u2153 cup golden syrup
3 tsp bicarbonate soda<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Method:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
  1. Whisk cream until thick. Reserve \u00bc cup for serving. Melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water.<\/li>
  2. Remove from the heat and fold in egg yolks, orange zest and cream. Spoon into 4 serving glasses and place in fridge until ready to serve.<\/li>
  3. Meanwhile, make the honeycomb. Lightly spray a 20cm x 20cm slice tin with oil. Heat sugar, golden syrup and \u00bc cup water in a medium saucepan over medium heat until sugar dissolves.<\/li>
  4. Bring to the boil and simmer for 5 minutes or until the sugar mixture turns golden.<\/li>
