For six:

  • 6 eggs
  • 6 oz dark chocolate, best quality , 70% cocao solids

  2. Separate the eggs
  3. Add the yolks one at a time, stirring them thoroughly into to the melted chocolate
  4. Add the booze of your choice and stir it in thoroughly
  5. Whisk the egg whites until standing in stiff peaks
  6. Loosen the chocolate mixture first by folding through a few tablespoons of the stiff egg whites (this is important)
  7. Fold the rest of the egg whites gently into the chocolate mixture
  8. Spoon into individual serving dishes (individual stemmed glassware is perfect, and impressive) then add a few berries to each serving, using a skewer to ‘poke’ them down into the mixture
  9. Chill for at least four hours
  10. Sprinkle a few fresh berries on top to serve
