Equipment

  • Electric hand whisk

Ingredients
  

Mousse:

  • 600 ml [2½ cups] double [heavy] cream
  • ½ tin condensed milk
  • 100 g [3.5 oz] chocolate of your choice
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Liquid green food colouring

Graveyard cups decoration:

  • 100 g [½ individual pack] Oreo cookies
  • Gummy worms
  • Halloween themed candy of your choice

Instructions
 

Beetlejuice movie night mousses:

  • In a heatproof bowl, melt the chocolate in 30 second bursts - stirring in between bursts - until melted. Leave to cool.
  • In a large mixing bowl, add the double cream and condensed milk. Using an electric hand whisk, mix the two together until frothy. The mixture doesn’t need to hold its shape yet.
  • Split the mixture in half so that you have two bowls of a (roughly) equal amount of mixture in each one.
  • Add the green food colouring and vanilla extract to one half and whisk until it holds its shape and resembles a soft whipped cream texture.
  • Add the cooled melted chocolate to the other half of the mixture. Whisk until it holds its shape and resembles a soft whipped cream texture.
  • Spoon or pipe the two mousse mixtures into your chosen serving containers. Swirl with a sharp knife if desired, or leave in blobs of colour. The choice is yours!
  • Use a cutlery knife to smooth over the surface and wipe round the edge of your containers if needed.
  • Blitz your Oreos in a food processor, or smash them into crumbs inside a sandwich bag with a rolling pin. Sprinkle the crumbs over your mousses, creating a “dirt” layer.
  • Finish by placing your gummy worms and chosen Halloween themed sweets in and on top of your Beetlejuice movie night mousses. Place in the fridge to set fully and keep refrigerated until ready to serve.

Notes

These creepily tasty Beetlejuice movie night graveyard mousses will last for up to 3 days in the fridge. They are super easy to whip up and do not need to be covered when sitting in the fridge. Enjoy!
