Ingredients
- 8 oz dark or semi-sweet chocolate*, chopped $3.74
- 1 pint heavy whipping cream, very cold $3.49
- 3 egg whites, room temperature $0.75
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar or sugar substitute $0.25
Instructions
- Fill a pot halfway with water and bring it to a boil. Take it off the heat. Place the chocolate in a bowl and place the bowl in the hot water, being careful not to get any water in the bowl. Leave the bowl there until the chocolate melts.
- Add the heavy cream to a large mixing bowl and beat on medium speed until soft peaks form (when you take the beater out of the whipped cream, the tip should curl over, not stand up straight).
- In a separate large mixing bowl, whip the egg whites on medium speed to soft peaks. Add the sugar and continue beating until stiff peaks form (the tips should stand straight up when you remove the beater).
- Gently fold the egg whites into the chocolate in thirds. Fold until no white streaks remain.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the chocolate in thirds. There should be no white streaks.
- Scoop mousse into serving dishes, cover, and refrigerate for an hour. Garnish with sweetened whipped cream, raspberries, mint, or shaved chocolate.
Notes
- *8 ounces of chocolate is about 1 1/2 cups
- about 1 1/2 cups
