Instructions

1. Melt the chocolate

Place chopped chocolate in a heatproof bowl.

Set over a pan of gently simmering water (double boiler method) and stir until smooth.

Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

2. Whisk egg yolks

Once the chocolate is warm (not hot), whisk in the egg yolks until smooth and glossy.

3. Beat egg whites

In a clean bowl, add egg whites with a pinch of salt.

Beat with a hand mixer or whisk until stiff peaks form.

4. Fold gently

Using a spatula, fold the whipped egg whites into the chocolate mixture in 2–3 additions.

Be gentle to keep the mixture airy and fluffy.

5. Chill & set

Spoon the mousse into serving glasses or bowls.

Refrigerate for at least 2 hours (or overnight) until firm and mousse-like.
