A new recipe for chocolate mousse has been released, outlining a process that takes 5 minutes to prepare and 20 minutes to cook. The dessert, which is described as a French staple, also requires a minimum of two hours for chilling.
The recipe yields two servings and specifies using 60g of chocolate with at least 70% cocoa content. It also includes two medium eggs, a pinch of salt, and two teaspoons of sugar, or sugar to taste.
Instructions detail melting the chocolate over a bain-marie or in a microwave, separating eggs, beating egg whites to soft peaks, combining egg yolks with the chocolate, and then folding in the egg whites. The finished mousse should be chilled to set.
