Ingredients
- 450 g good-quality dark chocolate
- 2 T butter
- 2 T sugar
- 3/4 cup cream
- 1 cup fresh mixed berries

Cooking Instructions
In a saucepan over a low heat, melt the chocolate and butter. In a separate saucepan, bring the sugar and cream to a boil, then add to the melted chocolate.
Transfer to a medium-sized roasting tray or rectangular plastic container and allow to set.
Mix the berries and chopped mint together and arrange on a platter.
Run a hot spoon along the length of the set chocolate to form a large curled “rose”. Arrange this on the platter.
Spoon the avocado pudding into a piping bag or nozzled plastic bottle and squeeze onto the serving plate.
Finish with a sprinkle of smoked salt and ground chilli.
