UK Measurements - USA Measurements
Instructions
  1. Melt the chocolate in a bain marie, or in bowl over a pan of hot water
  2. Crack and separate the eggs carefully. Whip the whites until they stand as proud peaks.
  3. Stir the cream and rum into the melted chocolate, and remove from the heat
  4. Beat the egg yolks into the chocolate mixture, then fold the eggs whites in.
  5. When combined, pour into small ramekins (you'll need 4) or large wine glasses (you'll need 2)
  6. Chill well in the fridge, then decorate with fruit, whipped cream, chopped nuts or icing sugar
Recipe Notes

Don't forget this contains raw eggs and is sadly best avoided by pregnant ladies. Sorry pregnant ladies everywhere, I don't make the rules!
