Chocolate Mousse Recipe

Classic Chocolate Mousse


Classic Chocolate Mousse

This Chocolate Mousse is a luscious and airy dessert that’s rich in chocolate flavor. Perfect for a romantic dinner or an indulgent treat, it’s surprisingly simple to make with just a few ingredients.

Ingredients (Serves 4):

  • 6 oz (170g) dark chocolate (60-70% cocoa), finely chopped
  • 3 large eggs, separated (ensure no yolk in the whites)
  • 3 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 cup heavy cream, cold
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Optional: whipped cream, chocolate shavings, or fresh berries for garnish

Instructions:

  1. Melt the Chocolate:

    • Place the chopped chocolate in a heatproof bowl.
    • Melt it over a double boiler or in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.

  2. Whisk the Egg Yolks:

    • In a medium bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the vanilla extract until smooth.
    • Gradually add the melted chocolate to the yolks, stirring constantly to combine.

  3. Whip the Egg Whites:

    • In a clean mixing bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form.
    • Gradually add the sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, and continue beating until glossy and stiff peaks form.

  4. Whip the Cream:

    • In another bowl, whip the cold heavy cream until soft peaks form.

  5. Combine the Mixtures:

    • Gently fold one-third of the whipped egg whites into the chocolate mixture to lighten it.
    • Carefully fold in the remaining egg whites until no streaks remain.
    • Gently fold in the whipped cream, being cautious not to deflate the mixture.

  6. Chill:

    • Spoon the mousse into individual serving dishes or glasses.
    • Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until set.

  7. Serve:

    • Garnish with whipped cream, chocolate shavings, or fresh berries before serving.

Tips and Variations:

  • Milk Chocolate: For a milder flavor, use milk chocolate instead of dark chocolate.
  • Flavored Mousse: Add 1 tbsp of liqueur (e.g., Grand Marnier, Kahlúa, or Baileys) to the chocolate mixture for a boozy twist.
  • Egg-Free Version: Substitute the egg whites with whipped cream (use an additional 1/2 cup) for an egg-free mousse.
