Tonka bean and chocolate mousse recipe
Chocolate with us is almost an institution, but we are on vacation at Lamotte Beuvron for the French Open Equestrian. Home cooking recipes are champions. Well let’s be a little modest, anyway it’s tomorrow for the qualifying for the final. So I don’t want to hurt my daughter, but I’m so proud of her! To come back to our sheep, no to my tonka bean flavored mousse, I chose a 70% dark chocolate with a lot of flavor, even character. I prepared it the day before so that the Tonkas beans release their aroma as much as possible.
