3 ingredient chocolate mousse in 5 minutes
Report
Heston Blumenthal 3 ingredient chocolate mousse recipe
Share:
Ingredients
- 265 g 9.35 ounces bittersweet 70% chocolate, chopped
- just less than 1 cup 240 ml of water
- 4 Tbsp sugar
- 2 Tbsp of brandy or any other liqueur of your choice optional
Instructions
- Melt the chocolate, sugar and water together in a double boiler or a bowl placed over a pot of boiling water.
- Fill a large bowl with ice cubes and then place another, smaller bowl on top of this and keep to one side.
- When the chocolate has melted, empty this into the bowl standing on top of the ice (I simply placed the bowl I had melted the chocolate in directly onto the ice).
- Using an electric hand-held mixer, start beating the mixture until it thickens. As it cools it starts to thicken. This takes about 3 - 5 minutes, so be patient.
- Once it starts to thicken it very quickly goes very hard, so I suggest spooning it into your serving dishes while it is still fairly soft. If you find the chocolate is grainy, you can heat it over the double bowler again and repeat the process until it is the texture that you like.
- I added the brandy towards the end of the mixing.
- It can be served immediately.
Notes
- To make give this mousse a delicious mouthfeel, stir through some whipped cream at the end before it gets too firm/
