Ingredients

For the base and mousse

200 g milk chocolate Can substitute with semi-sweet chocolate for richer flavor.
300 ml cream Whipped for the mousse.
2 sheets gelatin Ensure it's well mixed with chocolate to avoid lumps.

For the caramel

100 g sugar Melted for caramel.
50 g cream Added to the caramel.
30 g salted butter Add to caramel mixture.

Method

Preparation

Start by preparing a chocolate biscuit base.
Melt the sugar in a pan to make caramel, then add cream and butter, leaving it to cool in a mold.
Melt the milk chocolate and mix in the gelatin; then fold in whipped cream to create the mousse.

Assembly

Layer the biscuit base, followed by mousse, then the cooled caramel insert, and top with more mousse.
Refrigerate the dessert until set.

Serving

Serve chilled, sliced into portions or in glasses, topped with extra caramel sauce and toasted nuts if desired.

Notes

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge. Best enjoyed within a few days but can last up to a week. Consider adding different flavors, such as dark chocolate or vanilla extract to the mousse.
