Chocolate Mousse

Chocolate mousse as described by an Argentine mama.

Ingredient

1 1/4

(to 1 1/12) bar of semi sweet baking chocolate

6 tbsp

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Have beater plugged in and prepared, two medium size bowls, and sugar with tablespoon measurement ready. This should be prepared quickly to maintain consistency.

* Step 2

Separate 6 yolks from egg whites (NO yoke in the egg whites!)

* Step 3

Put butter in microwave for approximately 15-30 seconds (don’t let butter boil)

* Step 4

Add all chocolate to bowl and coat in warm butter

* Step 5

Microwave for approximately 15 second intervals and stir until everything is melted (may need approx 30-45 in microwave). Don’t let boil! *continue to stir as you follow the remaining instructions

* Step 6

Beat egg whites on high/max until it looks white, grows in size, and is like thin whip cream consistency (about 2 minutes)

* Step 7

Add 1 tablespoon of sugar at a time- sprinkle on top while beating. Repeat 5 more times (1 tablespoon for each egg). Consistency like custard.

* Step 8

Beat yolks on max until they turn a lighter yellow and takes up more volume/fluffs (1-2 minutes)

* Step 9

Add chocolate (now less hot) to yolks.

* Step 10

Beat just to mix (medium speed)

* Step 11

Add large spoon/spatula full of egg whites to the chocolate mix, and slowly stir so you don’t ruin texture/consistency. Stir from sides/bottom around the bowl, and lightly in the center to mix. Continue until all egg whites are mixed in. DO NOT OVER MIX OR BEAT!
