 French Chocolate Mousse

Here's a classic recipe for French chocolate mousse, a rich and airy dessert that's sure to impress:

Ingredients:

  • 200 grams (7 ounces) dark chocolate, chopped (preferably 60-70% cocoa)
  • 4 large eggs, separated
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • Optional: whipped cream and chocolate shavings for garnish

Instructions:

  1. Melt the Chocolate:

    • Place the chopped dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Set the bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler method) and stir until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

  2. Prepare the Egg Yolks:

    • In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the vanilla extract until well combined. Gradually add the melted chocolate to the egg yolks, stirring constantly to prevent the eggs from cooking. Mix until smooth and fully incorporated.

  3. Beat the Egg Whites:

    • In another clean, dry bowl, add a pinch of salt to the egg whites. Use an electric mixer to beat the egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add the granulated sugar and continue beating until stiff peaks form.

  4. Fold in the Egg Whites:

    • Gently fold a third of the beaten egg whites into the chocolate mixture to lighten it. Carefully fold in the remaining egg whites in two additions, being careful not to deflate the mixture. Use a spatula and fold gently until no streaks remain.

  5. Chill the Mousse:

    • Spoon the chocolate mousse into individual serving dishes or ramekins. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until set.

  6. Serve:

    • Before serving, you can garnish the chocolate mousse with whipped cream and chocolate shavings for an elegant touch.

Tips:

  • Chocolate Quality: Use high-quality dark chocolate for the best flavor and texture.
  • Egg Safety: If you're concerned about using raw eggs, you can use pasteurized eggs or look for recipes that cook the egg mixture slightly before folding in the egg whites.
  • Folding Technique: Be gentle when folding the egg whites into the chocolate mixture to maintain the mousse's airy texture.

Enjoy this classic French chocolate mousse, a dessert that's both rich and light, perfect for any special occasion!
