Ingredients
- 300 ml whipping cream
- 120 g white chocolate + 20g grated for decoration
- 1 tbsp rose water
- 1/2 tbsp orange flower water
- 1 egg white
Instructions
- Place a mixing bowl in the freezer for 10 minutes (I just put it outside - brrr!)
- Meanwhile, break 120g of the white chocolate into a saucepan and heat very gently together with 50ml of the cream, rose and orange flower waters. As soon as it's melted (after about 5 minutes), set aside to cool slightly.
- Using an electric beater, whisk the rest of the cream with the egg white to medium-firm peaks. Gradually pour in the melted chocolate mixture and continue whisking until completely mixed together.
- Pour into individual serving glasses and sprinkle on the grated white chocolate. Set aside in the fridge until needed.
Recipe Notes
Halve the quantities if you're serving just for a romantic couple but this does keep easily until the next day in the fridge.
