WOW! This is quite similar to Lali's Homemade Chocolate Pudding, just the brandy new in here, so I know beforehand, I'm going to love it and thank you for another yummy dessert!!!

    Ok...I'm going to make this with half 99% chocolate and half 85% chocolate. I'll tell you tomorrow how it turns out... I think it should be delicious! I might add one or two drops of mint essence

    Incredibly rich does describe this. I used 85% chocolate and found it too bitter before adding the egg whites, so added sugar to the egg whites, and used Kahlua instead of brandy. I also added a couple of extra beaten egg whites for more volume and to make it a bit lighter. Froze it in an oreo crust and served with whipped cream and slivered almonds.

    This is very rich indeed and a very generous serve, I think you could easily stretch this to 6 serves and still be well satisfied. We put a dollop of thickened cream and grated dark chocolate and white chocolate to decorate. I did initially microwave the chocolate but when I added the first egg yolk it seized up on me and I put into a double boiler, added a teaspoon of hot water and got it to melt back down and proceeded as per recipe, except I forgot to add the brandy (realized after I folded in the egg whites) but will definately do the next time. A really easy mousse to make, thank you Mirj.
