Three Colours Chocolate Crème

Submitted by Annacia

"Now I ask you what would our world tour be without a Chocolate Creme to sample? Serve this amazingly dreamy dessert in espresso cups. It's easy to make but they'll never know that. Since the explanation about the "mocca" bar was cut short I'll add it here: "and if you can't find a mocha bar melt a good quality milk chocolate bar and mix in 1-1.5 tsps instant coffee dissolved in as small amount of milk as possible""

These were so easy to make, despite the long list of instructions. And it was so good, too! Doing each creme separately and then layering each one in a coffee cup or mug was an excellent idea! I savoured each bite and wished there were more.
