SIMPLE CHOCOLATE MOUSSE

Steps:

• Break up chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Pour water over chocolate and microwave at 50% power for 2 minutes. Remove and stir until smooth. Let cool to room temperature.
• Place heavy cream into a mixing bowl and mix with an electric stand mixer's whisk attachment until stiff peaks form. Fold chocolate mixture into cream using a rubber spatula until mixture is uniform. Place immediately into a serving dish.
• Chill for at least 1 hour before serving. Mousse can be spooned or sliced.

Steps:

• Place the chocolate in a mixing bowl. Heat the cream over medium heat until it begins to simmer and then pour over the chocolate. Let this sit a minute and then gently stir, then switching to a whisk until the chocolate is melted and the cream smooth. Add flavouring as desired. Chill.
• Whisk the chocolate cream by hand or using beaters until a mousse consistency. Spoon or pipe this into glasses and serve immediately or chill until ready to serve.

EASY CHOCOLATE MOUSSE

Steps:

• In large bowl, beat whipping cream at medium speed just until stiff peaks form.
• In double boiler or in bowl set over saucepan, melt chocolate over simmering water. Pour melted chocolate into whipped cream; fold chocolate into cream (do not overmix; mixture can have a few streaks). Refrigerate at least 1 hour before serving.

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.)

CHOCOLATE MOUSSE

Steps:

• Put the chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl and place over a saucepan containing about 1-inch of barely simmering water (or use a double boiler). Stir with a wooden spoon until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth. Remove the bowl from the heat and let cool slightly. Then grab a whisk and beat the egg yolks into the chocolate, 1 at a time, beating until smooth after each addition. Set aside.
• In another bowl, beat the egg whites until foamy. Add the cream of tartar and beat until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in 1/4 cup sugar and continue beating until stiff peaks form.
• In a chilled bowl, beat the heavy cream until it begins to thicken up. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar and the vanilla and continue beating until the cream holds soft peaks.
• Now that you've got the elements prepared, put it all together. Gently fold the egg whites into the chocolate mixture to lighten it. Then, fold in the whipped cream. Take care not over work the mousse or it will be heavy. Divide the mousse between 4 individual glasses, preferably Moroccan glasses. Cover and chill for several hours. Garnish with whipped cream and chocolate shavings before serving.

EASIEST CHOCOLATE MOUSSE EVER

Steps:

• 1. Notice the amount of milk your box calls for. It will be either 2 cups, or 3 cups. Measure out the correct amount and put into medium sized bowl.
• 2. Add the contents of the jello pudding box into the same bowl.
• 3. Mix the two ingredient at a quick pace for around 2 minutes. You may notice that it becomes tough to mix, push through, it's worth the end result.
• 4. Put it in the fridge in individual cups or one big bowl, for at least 5 minutes. Make sure you cover the mousse or else you may find a hard top layer will form. (Although I doubt 5 minutes will create it; but if you have it in there longer you may want to)
• 5. ENJOY! (You may find it a bit thick; and if you have some extra 'heavy whipping cream', adding a small amount helps thin it out a little. A little goes a long way when adding more cream.)
• 6. Extra Tip: To give it an extreme chocolate flavor add 3-4 Tablespoons of cocoa powder (sifted)when you add the pudding mix into the whipping cream.
