Chocolate Mousse with Raspberries



Yield: Serves 4

Ingredients

  • 4 1/2 ounces good-quality bittersweet chocolate
  • 1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter
  • 4 large eggs, separated
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 6-ounce container of fresh raspberries (for garnish)
  • 1 bunch of fresh mint (for garnish)

Instructions

1. Place the chocolate and the butter in a bain-marie or double boiler over medium heat and, stirring occasionally, and melt until smooth. Remove from heat, allow to cool and transfer to a large mixing bowl.

2. Place the egg yolks and half of the sugar in a separate mixing bowl and whisk together until creamy. Set aside.

3. Place the egg whites in the bowl of an electric mixer and mix until they form soft peaks, gradually adding the remaining sugar while mixing.

4. Fold the egg-yolk mixture into the chocolate and blend well. Using a spatula, gently fold in the egg-white mixture until well incorporated. Refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours, until ready to serve.

5. Serve in individual glasses and garnish with mint and add raspberries on top.
