My husband made these little chocolate mousses last weekend. They were quick and easy to make and delicious! Here’s the recipe:
75 g dark chocolate, chopped and melted. (Use ordinary chocolate rather than chocolate with high cocoa content) (2.5 oz)
2 eggs, separated
25 g butter, melted (1/5 of a stick of butter)
2 Tablespoons caster sugar
1 Tablespoon Tia Maria (optional) We used Kahlua since that’s all we had in the pantry.
Mix the melted chocolate with the egg yolks and butter. Whisk the egg whites and then whisk in the sugar until the mixture is shiny and stiff. Fold the two mixtures together and add the Tia Maria. Divide into four glasses and chill until set. We used espresso cups and garnished the mousse with toasted slivers of almonds. They took 15 minutes to prepare.

Ok, where’s my conversion chart so I know what a g is? Oh! You added oz. and the amount of butter. Whew! That is so different than our measurements. lol
I have kahlua too, so I’m in business. Must try that this weekend.
Thanks Shelley!
