Chocolate Mousse

I love chocolate mousse! Who doesn´t? Unfortunately, due to the pregnancy it´s one of those things can´t have right now (the eggs aren´t cooked). When I went home in March, I got 3 bars of the culinary chocolate bars we used to use for the chocolate mousse and was waiting for a special occasion to use them. That occasion was my son´s birthday.

Next time I can use the culinary chocolate bars sold here in Singapore, but I find them too strong and heavier - in this case I might as well just reduce the quantity of chocolate.

When it comes to Chocolate Mousse, I´m only the sous chef in the kitchen, because the merit belongs to the hubby. This recipe came from his mum.

Ingredients
(normally we double the quantities)


6 eggs
1 chocolate bar (200gr)
125 gr Sugar
75 gr butter

Beat the egg whites and put aside.
Mix the egg yolks with the sugar very well until it becomes homogeneous and creamy.
Then, melt the chocolate in the butter, always stiring so that the chocolate doesn´t glue to the pan. Preferably, use a non-stick pan.
Once it´s melted, pour it into the egg yolk cream and mix everything very well.
Lastly, add the egg whites little by little and keep mixing until everything becomes a nice dark cream.
Pour it into several small cups or a larger tray and put in the fridge. In a few hours is ready to savor!
