Instructions
-
Melt the chocolate
Melt the dark chocolate using a bain-marie or microwave. If using the microwave, stir the chocolate regularly to prevent burning. -
Beat the eggs
Place the egg whites in a clean bowl. Add the salt and beat until fluffy. Gradually add the sugar and continue beating until the egg whites are stiff. -
Mix eggs and chocolate
Stir the egg yolks into the melted chocolate. Fold in half of the beaten egg whites, then gently fold in the rest until the mixture becomes a light chocolate mousse. -
Add the mousse to containers
Spoon the mousse into containers or glasses and let it set in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours. -
Grate chocolate
Use a box grater with the side that has the finest holes for grating your chocolate, and add it on top of your mousse. -
Add fruit when serving
A suggestion when serving your mousse is to top it with some fruit to give it an extra flavour
