Ingredients
- 4 eggs separated
- ¼ cup (50g) caster sugar
- 100 g (3.5oz) milk chocolate
- 100 g (3.5oz) dark chocolate
- 1 cup (250ml) cream
- pinch of salt
Instructions
- Place the egg yolks and sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment.
- Whisk the eggs and sugar together for 8-10 minutes until voluminous and pale yellow. Scrape the bowl down with a rubber spatula every 2-3 minutes to make sure the eggs are well incorporated.
- Break the chocolate up and place in a glass bowl. Place over a pot of barely simmering water and melt.
- Once completely melted, remove from the heat and allow to cool down for 5 minutes.
- In another clean bowl, whip the egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff peaks form.
- Whip the cold cream until firm peaks form.
- Once the egg yolks are whipped, pour in the cooled chocolate and mix until combined. The mixture will stiffen up quite a bit, but that's fine.
- Stir in one third of the cream to loosen the chocolate then gently fold in the remaining cream with a metal spoon.
- Fold in the beaten egg whites, taking care not to lose the airy texture.
- Transfer the chocolate mousse to a serving dish or individual glasses then place in the fridge. Allow to set for at least 6 hours but ideally overnight.
- Top the chocolate mousse with whipped cream and fresh raspberries then serve.
