Ingredients
- 200 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 large eggs, separated
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pinch of salt
- 1 cup whipped cream (for garnish)
- 2 tablespoons chocolate shavings (for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Begin by melting the semi-sweet chocolate and unsalted butter in a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water (double boiler). Stir until the mixture is smooth, then remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Step 2
Separate the eggs carefully, placing the yolks in one bowl and the whites in another. Add the yolks, one at a time, to the melted chocolate mixture, stirring constantly to combine.
Step 3
In a clean, dry bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until soft peaks form. Gradually add the sugar, one tablespoon at a time, and continue beating until the whites form stiff peaks.
Step 4
In another bowl, whip the heavy cream with the vanilla extract until it forms soft peaks. Be careful not to overwhip.
Step 5
Gently fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture until fully combined. Then, fold in the beaten egg whites in small batches, being careful not to deflate the mousse.
Step 6
Once the mixture is smooth and well incorporated, spoon the mousse into serving dishes, such as glasses or ramekins, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours to set.
Step 7
Before serving, garnish each serving with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of chocolate shavings for an elegant finish.
