Chocolate Mousse Recipe
me | me

Posted on 11/07/2009 4:42:53 PM PST by fujimoh

While I am reading the forum and keeping an eye on Pelosicare I decided to exercise my opposition to this bill and whipped up a batch of chocolate mousse ... ecstacy it was!

Here's the recipe for anyone who dares:

Chocolate Mousse (Yield=6 if your are generous)
6 oz. bittersweet chocolate (4 oz bitter choc, 2 oz sugar)
4 tbsp butter
4 eggs, separated
2 tbsp sugar
1 cup heavy cream
¼ cup sugar
1 cap Vanilla Extract

Melt chocolate over double boiler, temper in butter. When melted, remove from heat, temper in egg yolks. Allow to cool to room temperature. Whip egg whites , fold into chocolate. Whip cream with sugar and vanilla extract, fold into chocolate.

Whipping Cream Garnish – ½ C Cream, 2 tbsp Sugar, 1 cap Almond Extract

This sounds like a great recipe. Coincidentally, I had my hair cut today and when the hairdresser told me she was going to have to add some mousse to my hair, I gamely asked if she had any chocolate mousse , and she said no unfortunately. It seems like that would be a great idea for a new hair product . . there are so many identical mousses for people’s hair. Why not a chocolate mouse for the hair? Of course it would just make your hair smell like chocolate . and would not be edible.

Well then, let me share this with you:

Skin feel dry as a desert? Feed it a little chocolate candy! Our Chocolate Covered Cherries Hydrating Cream does more than smell like gourmet chocolate. Designed to give you maximum moisture, it also feels like a piece of heaven. And, considering we don't put any fillers in our cream. This is one chocolate you never feel guilty about.

I prefer the Almond Honey ... delish!

As long as it isn’t salmon mousse, you’ll be OK.

Great recipe!

I like to add Kahlua to my chocoate mousse.

It is tricky to do or the alcohol will collapse the egg whites.

Looks good, thinking this is closer to three servings though (all for me)

Put the alcohol in the chocolate once it’s melted. BTW, a shot of espresso or a raspberry cordial also works.
