White Chocolate & Cherry Mousse

 I 'm craving for a chocolate dessert, this is  what I’ve made. A simple dessert with white chocolate & cherries which I bought at the morning  market . I've been trying some white chocolate recipes lately & convinced  that they're delicious in bakes . Keeping that in mind, I wanted to try out this recipe from Gourmand magazine (2009) but for me it is still not chocolatey enough for me !  LOL    But nevertheless it’s a tasty mousse & light  with fresh cherry coulis .  A refreshing summery dessert . 

Jane Austen moment in Persuasion

Chapter 10

"Mary is good-natured enough in many respects," said she; "but she does sometimes provoke me excessively, by her nonsense and pride-- the Elliot pride.  She has a great deal too much of the Elliot pride.  We do so wish that Charles had married Anne instead.  I suppose you know he wanted to marry Anne?"
After a moment's pause, Captain Wentworth said "Do you mean that she refused him?"
"Oh! yes; certainly."
"When did that happen?"
"I do not exactly know, for Henrietta and I were at school at the time; but I believe about a year before he married Mary.  I wish she had accepted him.  We should all have liked her a great deal better; and papa and mamma always think it was her great friend Lady Russell's doing, that she did not.  They think Charles might not be learned and bookish enough to please Lady Russell, and that therefore, she persuaded Anne to refuse him."
