Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Fresh raspberries
- 50 grams Granulated sugar
- 250 ml Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Plain gelatin
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 100 grams Dark chocolate
- 20 grams Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Rosewater
- 4 leaves Fresh mint leaves (for garnish)
Instructions
In a small saucepan, combine the raspberries and 30 grams of granulated sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the raspberries break down into a syrupy consistency (about 5-7 minutes). Remove from heat and strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve to remove seeds. Set the raspberry puree aside to cool slightly.
In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin over 2 tablespoons of cold water. Let it bloom for 5 minutes, then microwave for 10-15 seconds until fully dissolved. Stir to ensure there are no lumps.
Whip 200 ml of heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold the cooled raspberry puree and the dissolved gelatin into the whipped cream. Add the rosewater and continue to fold until fully incorporated.
Divide the raspberry mousse mixture into two serving glasses or ramekins. Smooth the tops with a spatula and place in the refrigerator to set for 1-2 hours.
While the mousse sets, create the dark chocolate ganache. In a heatproof bowl, combine the dark chocolate (chopped) and unsalted butter. Heat the remaining 50 ml of heavy cream in a small saucepan until it just begins to simmer, then pour it over the chocolate and butter. Stir until smooth and glossy.
Once the mousse has set, pour a thin layer of the chocolate ganache on top of each serving. Return them to the refrigerator for another 30 minutes, or until the ganache is firm.
Before serving, garnish each glass with a fresh mint leaf and a couple of raspberries, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy the rich, romantic flavors of Cariad Rhudd Crimson Love!
