MAKES 6 INGREDIENT­S

• 45ml (3T) water

• 10ml (2t) gelatine powder

• 200g white chocolate, chopped

• 500ml (2 cups) cream

• 300g strawberri­es, quartered

• edible silver balls and extra berries for serving and decoration

METHOD:

1 Pour the water into a dish and add the gelatine. Let stand until the gelatine has absorbed the water.

2 In a small saucepan, melt 150g of the chocolate and the cream over medium heat. Stir constantly.

3 Remove saucepan from the heat, and stir in the gelatine mixture for about a minute.

4 Pour into a bowl and whip for three minutes or until cooled.

5 Divide first the strawberri­es and then the chocolate mix between six little glass bowls. Leave to set for about

45 to 60 minutes.

6 Melt the rest of the chocolate in the microwave on the defrost setting. Stir every 30 seconds until melted.

7 Spread a thin layer of the chocolate on baking paper. Just before it hardens completely, press out stars with a cookie cutter. Sprinkle the stars with silver balls.

8 Allow the stars to set, and gently lift them from the paper. Decorate each bowl with a star and extra berries.
