Chocolate cashew mousse

I have bought by mistake 99% chocolate instead of 90% which we love to taste together with the herbal tea in the evening. To make something of the 99% chocolate which is, in my view impossible to eat as is, I found a fantastic recipe for chocolate mousse from the Australian chef Jill Dupleix and which turns to be also healthy.
100 g dark chocolate
1/2 tsp dried chilli flakes
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
25 g roasted salted cashews
3 medium eggs, separated
4 tbs honey
- Melt the chocolate and add the dried chilli and cinnamon. Allow to cool for 10min.
- Whiz the cashews in a blender or food processor until finally ground.
- Beat the eggs and honey in a bowl until smooth. Stir in the chocolate and the ground cashews until smooth.
- Beat the egg whites until they form soft peaks, and gently fold into the chocolate mixture
- Spoon into 4 small pots and chill for 2 hours. To serve, top with fruit, whipped creme or just as it is.
