Fabulous chocolate mousse

CHUT… THIS SECRET CANNOT BE SHARED.

This chocolate mousse is extremely easy to make. You can’t get it wrong, really. It is my mother’s recipe .

Side note: the eggs are raw, they will not cook, that is just the way a chocolate mousse is, do not be surprised. Use fresh eggs, organic is even better.

Time: 20 minutes + 2h minimum in the fridge

INGREDIENTS
6 eggs at room temperature
200g dark chocolate chips or baking chocolate
2 tbsp of raw sugar

RECIPE

  1. Take out 3 bowl: 1 small, 1 medium that goes in the microwave, 1 large
  2. Separate egg white from yolk. put the white in the large bowl and the yolk in small bowl
  3. Put the chocolate in medium bowl and melt on low microwave heat.
  4. While chocolate is melting, beat the eggs whites + sugar until they are really  firm. (you should be able to put the bowl up side down and the egg whites will not spill). Set aside.
  5. Using a hand mixer, mix the egg yolk and the melted but not hot chocolate.
  6. Pour the chocolate+yolk mixture over the beaten egg whites, using hand mixer on high speed, mix well together for 1 minute. The result is a bit liquid, it is normal, it will harden in the fridge.
  7. Pour in a serving bowl or in individual cups and place in the fridge for at least 2 hours.
