Instructions
- Beat egg yolks in the bowl of a stand mixer with the whisk attachment for 3 minutes until thick. Gradually add the sugar while beating.
- Heat 1 cup of cream in a small saucepan until hot. With the mixer on, stream ½ of the hot cream into the eggs. Once combined, pour the mixture into the pot with the remaining ½ cup of cream. Turn the heat to low and cook until thick, stirring constantly (5 minutes).
- Mix in the vanilla and then add in the chocolate in 3 batches, stirring over low heat until melted and smooth.
- Pour the mix into a large bowl, cover, and place in the fridge for 1½-2 hours, stirring every 20-30 minutes. Once no longer warm, remove from the fridge and whip up the remaining 1½ cups heavy cream to stiff peaks. Fold the cream into the cooled chocolate mixture.
- Pipe or spoon the mouse into small glasses. Cover and place in the fridge until ready to serve.
- Garnish with fresh whipped cream and shaved chocolate.
