Time 1h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 3/4 cups cold heavy cream
1 large egg
2 large egg yolks
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon instant espresso powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
4 ounces good-quality bittersweet chocolate, chopped
4 ounces good-quality semisweet chocolate, chopped

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.)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons white sugar
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
1 cup heavy whipping cream
½ teaspoon almond extract
½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Sprinkle the gelatin on top of 2 tablespoons water; set aside. Separate the eggs. Lightly beat the egg yolks.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate. The better the chocolate, the better the mousse pie will taste. Look for chocolate with a high cocoa content (at least 70%) and a smooth, velvety texture.
  • Make sure the chocolate and cream are cold before you start. This will help the mousse to set properly.
  • Whip the cream until it is stiff peaks. This will help the mousse to be light and airy.
  • Fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture gently. Over-mixing can cause the mousse to deflate.
  • Chill the mousse pie for at least 4 hours before serving. This will give it time to set properly.

Conclusion:

Chocolate mousse pie is a delicious and decadent dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make a chocolate mousse pie that will impress your friends and family.
