  Step 1

  Melt 4 ounces of chocolate with a double boiler, direct heat, or microwave. Break the chocolate bar into small pieces to ensure even melting.

  Allow the melted chocolate to cool to slightly lukewarm but before the chocolate hardens up again. This is very important unless you want to see a balloon covered with chocolate exploding on you (don't ask me how I know).

  Step 2

  Place the chocolate covered balloons on a pan covered with parchment paper.

  Allow the balloons to sit for 30 minutes or stick them in the fridge to harden up faster.

  Be careful when you pull the balloons off the parchment paper. And don't hold them to tight or else the sides will crush in and that's not fixable. If there are slight cracks along the sides or on the bottom, fix them with a piping bag filled with melted chocolate

  Step 3

  Fill with chocolate mousse

• 

  Step 4

  Add a topping of fresh whipped cream and garnish with a dash of cocoa powder.

  Step 5

  Prepare to have your taste buds dancing to a sweet and spicy tune!

You probably just pipe some melted chocolate on the parchment paper, making a curve like one half of a heart. Than you'll let it cool, peel the parchment paper of carefully and stick the handle on to the cup with some more melted chocolate. Shouldn't be too hard, I s'pose. ^^
