Yield Makes 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 ounces best-quality unsweetened chocolate, roughly chopped
5 ounces Gianduja chocolate, roughly chopped
1 cup heavy cream
4 large egg yolks
1/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon light corn syrup

Steps:

  • Place both chocolates in a heat-proof bowl; set over a pan of simmering water. Stir occasionally until completely melted. Remove from heat; set aside in a warm place.
  • Place cream in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with whisk attachment; whip until soft peaks form. Transfer to a medium bowl. Cover; chill. Wash and dry mixer bowl.
  • Place the egg yolks in the mixer bowl, and whip on medium speed until pale yellow, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Place sugar, corn syrup, and 1 tablespoon water in a small, shallow saucepan set over medium-high heat. Attach a candy thermometer to side of pan, and cook until sugar syrup reaches soft-ball stage (238 degrees).
  • Increase mixer speed to high; pour sugar syrup down side of bowl; continue mixing on high 5 seconds. Reduce speed to medium; mix until bottom of bowl is warm to the touch. Quickly whisk egg mixture into chocolate. Whisk in one-third of chilled whipped cream; gently fold in remainder. Cover with plastic, and chill until set, about 2 hours.

I'm not a fan of nuts, but I still really enjoyed this mousse. The hazelnut flavor was subtle and not overpowering.

This mousse is a bit too rich for my taste. I think I'll try making it with dark chocolate next time.

This mousse is the perfect make-ahead dessert. I made it the night before, and it was even better the next day.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my mousse didn't set properly. I think I might have overbeaten the egg whites.

This mousse is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my mousse turned out grainy. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

I've made this mousse several times now, and it's always a hit. It's so easy to make, and it always turns out perfectly. The mousse is light and fluffy, with a rich chocolate flavor. I love serving it with fresh berries or a dollop of whipped cream.
