Chocolate Mousse

I found a photo of this chocolate mousse, at one of my latest "addictions" along with a link to the recipe. Right away, I saved it so that, I could make it. I am so glad I did ! This is a keeper, it so quick and easy to make, and there are no raw eggs, so it's safe to eat ( I am not a fan of using raw eggs). Hard to believe chocolate and water, could come together to make such a delicious mousse.

dark chocolate (70% cocoa solids), water, and sugar

add water, sugar, and chocolate to pot, & melt

two bowls, one with ice and water, the other must fit in the first, & whisk

add melted chocolate to the dry bowl
and start whisking, TRUST ME THIS WORKS...

see, it starts to thicken up ( at this point it was perfect)

this here is already to thick (but oh sooo good), if you want to pour into little cups
Enjoy




CHOCOLATE MOUSSE
Ingredients
4 servings
  • 9.35 ounces (265 grams) bittersweet (%70 cocoa solids) chocolate, chopped
  • 1 cup (240 ml) water
  • 4 tbsp sugar, optional
Method
  1. Place a large mixing bowl on top of another slightly smaller one, filled with ice and cold water (the bottom of the large bowl should touch the ice). Set aside.
  2. Put chocolate and water (also sugar if using) in a medium-sized pan and melt the chocolate over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
  3. Pour the melted chocolate into the mixing bowl sitting on top of ice and water, and start whisking with a wire whisk until thick. Watch  and make sure not to over-whip as it will make the mousse grainy. If the mousse becomes grainy (which is possible at your first try), transfer it back into the pan, reheat until half of it is melted, pour it back to the mixing bowl and whisk again briefly.
  4. Divide into four serving cups and serve immediately.

  3. Bem, esta receita tinha-me escapado! Impressionante, ficou mesmo espessa e sem os ovos fica bem menos calórica.
