Method

1. Put the white chocolate, milk and vanilla in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water, making sure the bowl does not touch the water. Heat until the chocolate is just melted, stirring regularly. Allow to cool for 5 minutes.

2. Add the egg yolks to the melted chocolate, beating well after each addition.

3. Whip the cream in a bowl until soft peaks form then fold through the chocolate mixture until just combined.

4. Whisk the egg whites in a large, clean, dry bowl until soft peaks form. Using a large metal spoon, fold through the chocolate mixture in 2 batches.

5. Divide the mousse between 6 x 250ml ramekins or serving dishes. Cover and chill for 3-4 hours, or until set. Remove from refrigerator and spoon passion fruit on top of the mousse just before serving.

This is a lovely recipe. The addition of the passion fruit is genius as the sharpness of the fruit compliments the sweetness of the mousse very well.
