Elegant chocolate Charlotte

For this version of a Charlotte cake, you'll need chocolate, ladyfinger biscuits and eggs. Make a chocolate mousse, then dip the ladyfingers in simple (sugar) syrup. Grease a baking tin, then alternate layers of biscuits and mousse in the tin. Refrigerate and place ladyfinger 'soldiers' around the perimeter before serving, with a sprinkling of chocolate flakes and fresh sliced strawberries on top.
