Ingredients
For the mousse
40g butter
40g muscovado or dark brown sugar
80g smooth peanut butter
1 tbsp honey
250ml double (heavy) cream
a small handful of roasted salted peanuts, to serve
For the chocolate sauce (makes 150g)
50ml double cream
50 dark chocolate (70% cocoa solids), chopped
1 heaped tsp peanut butter
1 heaped tsp honey
50ml water
Method
Slowly melt the butter with the sugar, peanut butter and honey in a low-sided saucepan on a low heat until they combine to form a thick paste, stirring occasionally so the mixture doesn’t stick. Transfer to a large mixing bowl and cool.
Mix in the double cream by hand with a balloon whisk or handheld blender until you reach a lovely thick ribbon consistency (the whisk should leave a trail of the mixture on the surface before sinking in).
Divide the mousse between four glasses and chill in the fridge for at least an hour before serving.
Shortly before you want to serve, place all the sauce ingredients in a small pan on a low heat. Stir all the time until the chocolate has melted and everything has combined to make a smooth sauce. Pour into a small jug.
Allow everyone to top their own mousse with warm sauce and salty peanuts.
