Chocolate Mousse Bars - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 lb semi-sweet chocolate, chopped
8 tbsp (1 stick) butter, chopped
2 tbsp light corn syrup
4 None eggs
1 tbsp granulated sugar
1 tbsp flour, sifted
None None Unsweetened cocoa powder, to dust
None None FOR THE COFFEE MASCARPONE
2 tbsp instant coffee
7 oz mascarpone cheese
2 tbsp powdered sugar

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 425\u00b0F. Lightly grease and line an 8-inch square cake pan with parchment paper.
Combine chocolate, butter and syrup in a heatproof bowl. Place over a saucepan of simmering water and stir until smooth. Cool slightly.
Beat eggs and sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer 8-10 mins until very thick and pale. Gently fold in flour, then chocolate mixture, until combined. Pour into prepared pan.
Bake 12-15 mins. Remove from oven and run a knife around edges. Transfer to the refrigerator for 1 hour to cool (this step is important as it sets the middle of the cake).
Meanwhile, for the coffee mascarpone, dissolve coffee in 1 tbsp boiling water in a medium bowl; set aside to cool. Add mascarpone and powdered sugar and beat with electric mixer until thick.
Cut dessert into squares. Serve topped with dollops of coffee mascarpone and sprinkled with sifted cocoa powder.
