Chocolate Mouse

Tea and chocolate, two of my favourite things, and a match made in heaven.Tea can be a long experience or a quick brew, a get together with friends or an hour alone with your feet up.

With so many tea traditions all over the world, finding ways of using tea in different ways can be a challenge.

Not with this Indian Spiced Chai Tea from Cheeky Chai not only perfect to drink, but a perfect thing to use in cooking too.

And if you know me at all, you’ll know that a bit of chocolate brings a smile to my face so any excuse is fine by me to add it to, well, as much as I can. If you’re looking for a chocolatey treat that you can make in a short time, or even plan ahead and keep it in the fridge until you need it, this is the one for you.

As much as infusing the cream with the Indian Spiced Chai Tea gives it an amazing flavour, don’t limit yourself to infusing your cream with only this. What about adding a bit of coffee, a little rum or maybe some fresh orange zest.

If you’re looking to go down the tea infusion route, try cranberry, green tea or maybe a nice earl grey. Earl grey will give you a subtle smoky flavour, but you might need to adjust the amount to suit your taste. But that’s the fun with cooking right, giving it a go, playing around with ingredients, finding new things that you like and not like?

Having only three ingredients in this recipe means that you can get a little creative.

This chocolate mouse is such an easy recipe, and when the Indian Spiced Chai Tea is infused into the cream, it adds subtle undertones giving the mouse a special flavour you’ll fall in love with. Go on, give it a go. Enjoy your sweet life!
