Time 1h30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

5 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
1/4 ounce unflavored gelatin (1 envelope)
1/4 cup water
3 large egg yolks
5 tablespoons superfine sugar
1 cup milk
1 cup heavy cream

  • Put the milk into a saucepan and bring just to a boil.
  • *Gradually whisk the hot milk into the yolks.
  • Then return the mixture into the saucepan.
  • Cook the custard over medium-low heat, scraping the bottom of the pan constantly with a wooden spoon. Cook the custard sauce until it reaches 165°F.to 170°F on an instant read thermometer(Another test method is to dip a metal spoon into the custard. Run your finger down the middle of the custard, and if the trail stays it's ready).
  • Melt the chocolate in a microwave.
  • Stir the softened gelatin into the custard, whisking until the gelatin is dissolved.
  • Whisk the custard into the chocolate. Pour the mixture into a bowl and allow to cool to room temperature. Place in refrigerator for 20 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes.
  • While the custard is chilling, pour cream into a chilled bowl and beat to soft peaks.
  • Oil a mold with almond oil.
  • Gently fold the cream into the custard and pour into the oiled mold.
  • To serve: Unmold the Bavarian cream a short time before serving. Garnish with your choice , or whipped cream, grated chocolate, orange, raspberries or other fruit.
  • Note:The servings will vary; depends on th mold that you use. Times do not include chilling. Times are guesstimated.
  • *Be very careful when whisking the milk into the yolks. If you put too much hot liquid too quickly into the yolks, you will have scrambled eggs. Just pour in a small amount at first.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling.
  • Use a Thermometer: When making the custard base, use a thermometer to ensure that it reaches the correct temperature. This will help prevent the custard from curdling.
  • Strain the Custard: After cooking the custard base, strain it through a fine-mesh sieve. This will remove any lumps and ensure a smooth texture.
  • Chill the Custard: Before adding the whipped cream, chill the custard base for at least 4 hours. This will help it set and thicken.
  • Use Fresh Whipped Cream: For the best results, use freshly whipped cream. This will give the mousse a light and airy texture.
  • Fold the Whipped Cream: When adding the whipped cream to the custard, fold it gently. This will help prevent the mousse from deflating.
  • Chill the Mousse: Before serving, chill the mousse for at least 2 hours. This will help it set and firm up.
  • Garnish with Chocolate Shavings: For a finishing touch, garnish the mousse with chocolate shavings. This will add a touch of elegance and flavor.

Conclusion:

Faux Chocolate Bavarian Cream is a delicious and elegant dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own preferences. With its rich chocolate flavor and creamy texture, this mousse is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
