150 ml Port wine
1 package Vanillin sugar
1 TABLESPOON Sugar

Directions

1
For the mousse, possibly heat milk the day before. Break the chocolate into pieces and melt in a hot water bath. Leave in a hot water bath. Allow the milk to soak in very slowly, stirring constantly.
2
Cool down for about 30 minutes.

Whip the cream until stiff and carefully fold into the chocolate. Cover the mousse and chill for at least 3 hours.
4
For the plums, possibly wash and stone the fruit the day before. Bring 200 ml water, port wine, vanilla sugar, sugar and cinnamon to the boil. Stir the starch and 3-4 tbsp. water until smooth and use to thicken the wine stock.
5
Add plums, bring to the boil and simmer for 2-3 minutes. Leave to cool.
6
Shape the mousse into balls as desired with a large ice-cream scoop. Serve with some plum compote and add the rest.
