Chocolate Mousse

A classic French chocolate mousse with deep bittersweet flavor, a satiny base, and a light, airy finish. Pasteurized eggs make this elegant dessert suitable for serving without cooking the egg mixture.

Zubereitung

1
Place the chopped chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl. Set the bowl over a saucepan of barely simmering water, making sure the base does not touch the water, and stir until smooth, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and cool until just warm, about 10 minutes.
2
Whisk the pasteurized egg yolks into the warm chocolate mixture one at a time until the mixture is uniform and shiny. Stir in the salt.
3
In a clean, dry bowl, whisk the pasteurized egg whites on medium speed until foamy. Add the sugar gradually, then whisk on medium-high speed until the whites form glossy medium peaks that hold their shape but still curve at the tip, about 3 to 4 minutes.

4
Stir one-third of the whipped whites into the chocolate mixture to lighten it. Gently fold in the remaining whites in two additions with a spatula, turning from the bottom until no white streaks remain; do not overmix.
5
Divide the mousse among four small glasses or ramekins. Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, until softly set and gently yielding in the center.
6
Let the mousse stand at room temperature for 10 minutes, then serve chilled with optional whipped cream, berries, or grated chocolate.

Warum dieses Rezept gelingt

Melted chocolate and butter create a glossy, flavorful base, while pasteurized whipped egg whites provide lift without the need for gelatin. Folding in stages preserves the mousse's fine, creamy bubbles.
