Ingredients
1 x 200g pkt milk chocolate with hazelnuts, coarsely chopped
3 eggs, at room temperature, separated
125ml (1/2 cup) thickened cream
55g (1/4 cup) caster sugar
Icing sugar, to dust
Candy canes, to serve
Method
Step 1
Place chocolate in a small heatproof bowl over a saucepan half-filled with simmering water (make sure the bowl doesn't touch the water). Stir with a metal spoon until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly. Stir in the egg yolks.
Step 2
Use an electric beater to beat the cream in a bowl until firm peaks form. Use a metal spoon to fold half the cream into the chocolate mixture. Repeat with remaining cream.
Step 3
Use a clean electric beater to beat the egg whites in a clean, dry bowl until soft peaks form. Gradually add the sugar, beating until the mixture is thick and glossy.
Step 4
Fold the egg white mixture into the chocolate mixture. Spoon into four 250ml (1-cup) capacity serving cups. Cover and place in the fridge for 6 hours or until set.
Step 5
Dust with icing sugar and serve with candy canes.
