3. Spoon into 12 mini cupcake cases and bake for 25 minutes on 160°c

ICING
4. Blend all chocolate mousse icing ingredients together and place in fridge for 20 mins. (freezer if you're in a hurry for about 10 mins)
5. You can either spoon it onto the cupcakes or place it in a piping bag (I just use a plastic zip lock bag with a piping tip put in) and pipe out blobs on top.
*Make sure you keep in the fridge or icing will melt.
