Ingredients
3
sheets platinum-grade leaf gelatine, we used Dr. Oetker
150g
dark chocolate, roughly chopped
2
medium egg whites*
4Tbsp.
powdered sweetener, we used Canderel
100g
0% fat Greek yogurt
Couple drops peppermint extract, about 1/8tsp, we used Dr. Oetker
200ml
double cream
Directions
Step 1In a small pan soak the gelatine in 100ml cold water for 5min. Meanwhile, melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water. Set bowl aside to cool, until needed.
Step 2Heat the gelatine pan, stirring, just until the gelatine dissolves. Set pan aside to cool for a few min. In a medium bowl, using a handheld electric whisk, beat the egg whites until they hold stiff peaks. Gradually beat in 2tbsp sweetener, whisking back up to stiff peaks.
Step 3In a separate medium bowl, using the handheld electric whisk, beat the cream until it just holds its shape. Add the remaining 2tbsp sweetener, the gelatine mixture, peppermint and beat until combined. Using a large metal spoon, fold in the cooled chocolate, followed by the egg whites, being careful to keep in as much air as possible.
Step 4Divide between 6 glasses or small bowls and chill until set, at least 1hr (up to 48hr). Serve.
