THE ULTIMATE MAKEOVER: CHOCOLATE MOUSSE



The ultimate makeover: Chocolate mousse image

This sophisticated dessert is great for a dinner party, or for a lighter family pud use ordinary dark chocolate with less cocoa solids

Provided by Angela Nilsen

Categories     Dessert, Dinner

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 8

85g dark chocolate , 70% (I used Green & Black's)
1 tbsp cocoa powder , plus extra for dusting
½ tsp coffee granules
½ tsp vanilla extract
2 egg whites
1 tbsp golden caster sugar
50g full-fat Greek yogurt
handful raspberries , to decorate

Steps:

  • Chop the chocolate very finely and put it into a large bowl that will fit over a pan of simmering water. Mix the cocoa, coffee and vanilla with 2 tbsp cold water, and pour over the chocolate. Place the bowl over the gently simmering water, give it all a stir, then remove from the heat. Leave with the bowl of chocolate still over the water, stirring occasionally to check when melted.
  • Stir the melted chocolate, it will be quite thick. Stir in 2 tbsp boiling water and the chocolate will immediately thin down and become silky smooth. Leave to cool slightly.
  • Whisk the egg whites to fairly soft peaks, then whisk in the sugar until thick and glossy. Beat the yogurt into the cooled chocolate. Fold about one-third of the egg whites into the chocolate mix using a large metal spoon, then very gently fold in the rest of the whites until they are evenly mixed in - being careful not to over-mix or you will lose the volume of the mousse. Spoon into 4 small cups or (125-150ml) ramekins and chill for a couple of hours, or overnight.
  • Place each mousse on a saucer or small plate. Top with a few raspberries, then dust with a little cocoa powder. Will keep for up to 2 days in the fridge.
