These are a dinner party must – they look divine and can be made in advance

 Ingredients
75g (3oz) Divine 85% Dark Chocolate (available at Tesco), broken into pieces
25g (1oz) butter
1 tablespoon double cream
3 eggs, separated
1 tablespoon chocolate- or coffee-flavoured liqueur
To decorate
Whipped cream
Crystallized violet petals (optional)
Method
1. Put the Divine 85% Dark Chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of barely simmering water so that the base of the bowl is not touching the water and leave until melted. Remove the bowl from the pan and beat in the cream and the egg yolks, then stir in the liqueur.
2. Whisk the egg whites in a large, grease-free bowl until stiff. Using a large metal spoon, fold the egg whites into the chocolate mixture. Spoon into 4 coffee cups or small glasses and chill until set.
3. Just before serving, top each mocha pot with a rosette of whipped cream and decorate with crystallized violets, if you like. Serve immediately.
