THE BEST CHOCOLATE MOUSSE
The best chocolate mousse must be perfect. It should taste rich, indulgent and not too sweet, with a texture that is both light-and-airy and silky-and-smooth. After many attempts we nailed it and made a dessert that not only exceeded our standards, it's also quite easy to pull off. Close your eyes and take a bite -- you'll be transported to a 4-star French restaurant.

Steps:
- Whip 1 cup of the heavy cream to soft peaks in a medium bowl (see Cook's Note). Set aside.
- Add the egg, egg yolks, sugar, espresso powder, vanilla extract, salt and 1 tablespoon water to a medium heatproof bowl and whisk to combine. Set the bowl over a medium saucepan of gently simmering water (do not allow the bowl to touch the water). Whisk constantly until the mixture is pale, hot to the touch and has almost doubled in volume, about 4 to 6 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl occasionally with a rubber spatula, if necessary. Remove from the heat and continue whisking until cooled, about 2 minutes.
- Put the chopped chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl and set over the saucepan of gently simmering water (do not allow the bowl to touch the water). Stir occasionally with a rubber spatula until the chocolate is melted and smooth. Remove from the heat and gently stir for about 3 minutes to cool slightly.
- Whisk the egg mixture into the melted chocolate in 3 additions until combined. (The mixture may get very thick.) Using a rubber spatula, gently fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture in 3 additions until it is fully incorporated. It is important that the chocolate mixture is not warm to ensure that it combines smoothly with the whipped cream without seizing up.
- Divide the chocolate mousse among four 4-ounce ramekins and chill until firm, about 1 hour.
- Whip the remaining 3/4 cup cold heavy cream to stiff peaks. Top each chocolate mousse with whipped cream and serve. (For a softer texture, allow the ramekins to sit at room temperature while you whip the cream.)
MIRJ'S INCREDIBLY RICH CHOCOLATE MOUSSE
This mousse is so incredibly rich that you can stand a spoon in it and it will not fall. I have been making this recipe for the last 18 years, it's based on a recipe I found in a Marks & Spencer's cookbook I got as a wedding present. [Edited to say that this was posted in 2001, now it's 2006 and it's been 23 years since I've been making this recipe, and it's still going strong!]

Steps:
- Break the chocolate up into small pieces.
- Melt them either over a double boiler or in the microwave.
- Add the eggs yolks, one at a time, and incorporate thoroughly into the chocolate.
- You have to stir fast so the chocolate doesn't cook the yolks.
- Add the brandy.
- Whip the whites until stiff.
- Slowly fold them into the chocolate mixture.
- Pour into individual dessert glasses, or into one large serving bowl.
- Chill in the fridge for at least 2 hours.
- Note: You can also pour it into a prepared pie crust and freeze it for Mirj's Incredibly Rich Chocolate Mousse Pie.
- Note: This is a very basic recipe, which can be doubled, trebled, quadrupled, etc.
- Just remember, use 2 eggs for every 4 ounces (100 grams) of chocolate.
RICH CHOCOLATE MOUSSE
Although trends come and go, chocolate mousse never fails to impress. Not only does it manage to convey both indulgence and comfort, it couldn't be simpler to make. This version is a true classic mousse in that the eggs are not cooked. You'll find it unbelievably smooth and voluptuous.

Steps:
- Melt chocolate and butter in a large metal bowl set over a saucepan of barely simmering water, gently stirring occasionally until smooth. Remove from heat.
- Meanwhile, beat yolks in a small bowl with an electric mixer until thick enough to form a ribbon that takes a few seconds to dissolve, 2 to 4 minutes. Whisk yolks into chocolate mixture along with Cognac, then cool to warm.
- Beat cream in a medium bowl with cleaned beaters until it just holds stiff peaks.
- Beat whites with salt in another bowl with cleaned beaters until they just hold soft peaks.
- Fold whipped cream and beaten whites into chocolate mixture gently but thoroughly. Transfer to stemmed glasses, 4-ounces ramekins, or a serving dish.
