Chocolate Mousse

brought by Kristin Marshall


Mousse au Chocolate

(sorry all my measurements are in European style - you can use a scale to get accurate measurements or use a converter on line, though they rarely come out exact)
200g chocolate (the higher quality chocolate the better. Pick it according to your taste, if you like dark or milk, but dark does give it more flavor!)
60g butter, softened
2 egg yolks
6 egg whites
50g sugar

Melt the chocolate and butter in a double-boiler
When the preparation is not warm, add the egg yolks, one by one and mix well.
Beat your egg whites and gradually add the sugar until stiff.
Add the egg whites to the preparation, by folding it in
Place in individual cups or a big bowl and chill for at least 2-3 hours.
