This is one of the hottest ever chilli chocolates. It is made with rich, dark, organic chocolate and has also been spiced up with the worlds hottest chilli – the Bhut Jolokia.

You will get a taste sensation like no other chocolate gives you. This really leaves all other chilli chocolates far behind – first you are treated to the delicious pleasure of dark chocolate before the slow build up of an awesome heat.

(this recipe makes 4 servings)

- 200g of dark chocolate (preferably with at least 70% cocoa solids)
- 150ml of double cream
- Half a Bhut Jolokia chilli
- 5 eggs
- 4 teaspoons of caster sugar
- A few squares of white chocolate

1. Using a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water, or equivalent melt the broken dark chocolate gently, without stirring.

2. Put the double cream in a different pan and add the roughly chopped Bhut Jolokia, bring to the boil slowly before removing from the heat

3. Meanwhile, separate the egg whites from the egg yolks, setting aside the yolks and adding the whites to a large mixing bowl

4. Beat the egg whites until they are beginning to turn fluffy, then add the caster sugar and continue beating until stiff peaks form

5. Strain the cream into a bowl to remove pieces of Bhut Jolokia, then add the melted chocolate and stir until combined

6. Add a spoonful of the egg whites to the chocolate-cream mixture to lighten it, stir in well

7. Add the chocolate / cream to the egg whites in batches, folding (not stirring) it in with a metal spoon, continue until it is all combined

8. Dish up into single bowls and chill for an hour minimum
