Ingredients
- 150 grams dark chocolate (sugar-free, minimum 70% cocoa)
- 50 grams unsalted butter
- 3 pieces large eggs, separated
- 3 tablespoons granulated erythritol
- 200 ml heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pinch pinch of salt
Directions
Step 1
Chop the dark chocolate into small pieces and place it in a heatproof bowl along with the unsalted butter. Melt them together using a double boiler or microwave in short bursts, stirring until smooth. Let cool slightly.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, beat the egg yolks with 2 tablespoons of granulated erythritol until the mixture becomes pale and thick. Slowly whisk the melted chocolate into the egg yolk mixture until combined.
Step 3
In another clean bowl, whisk the egg whites with a pinch of salt to soft peaks. Gradually add the remaining tablespoon of erythritol and continue whisking until stiff peaks form.
Step 4
Gently fold the egg whites into the chocolate mixture one third at a time, being careful not to deflate the mixture.
Step 5
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream with the vanilla extract until it reaches soft peaks.
Step 6
Fold the whipped cream into the chocolate and egg mixture until fully combined and smooth.
Step 7
Divide the mousse into individual serving glasses or bowls and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or until set.
Step 8
Serve chilled, optionally garnish with cocoa powder, grated chocolate, or a dollop of whipped cream for decoration.
