Course Dessert
Cuisine American

Equipment

  • 1 Small Saucepan & Heat-Proof Bowl (Bain-Marie)
  • 1 Electric Hand Mixer or Stand Mixer
  • Multiple Mixing Bowls
  • 1 Large Metal Spoon or Silicone Spatula
  • Individual Ramekins or Small Serving Glasses
  • Fine Grater or Zester

Ingredients
  

  • 25 g White chocolate (for the topping)
  • 50 g Dark chocolate (70%)
  • 4 Large egg whites
  • 2 tbsp Caster sugar

Instructions
 

Topping

  • Make chocolate curls with the white chocolate by running a swivel peeler over the surface.
  • Or just grate some into any way you like, as you are just going to use this to sprinkle over the top…. it’s more of a presentation thing.
  • When you have enough to sprinkle set these aside in the fridge.

The Mousse

  • Melt the dark chocolate in a bowl over simmering water or in the microwave on Medium for 11/2-2 mins. Leave to cool slightly.
  • Whisk the egg whites until stiff, then whisk in the sugar.
  • Fold in the melted chocolate
  • Divide between 4 small dishes or cups, about 100ml in size.
  • Leave to set for a few hours before serving. I leave mine for around 3-5 hours
  • Sprinkle over the white chocolate curls once ready to serve.

Notes

If you are not a fan of the 70% dark chocolate, feel free to go for something a bit lighter.
