Chocolate mousse

Me and my family love mousse. So one day I decided to make chocolate mousse and it was sooooooooooo good I just had to put it on here. I like how the texture of mousse is kinda light and floppy. This is a perfect dessert to have after a delightful delicious dinner .Its a easy way to give your friends and family a dish they will all love and trust me you will too.

Ingredients-

5 1/4 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped

14 ounces cold heavy cream

3 large egg whites

1-ounce sugar

Sweetened whipped cream,  (optional)

Directions-

Place chocolate in a large bowl set over a double boiler at a low simmer. 

Stir chocolate until melted. Turn off the heat and let rest.

Beat the cream over ice until it forms soft peaks. 

Set aside and hold at room temperature. 

With a mixer, whip egg to soft peaks. Gradually add the sugar and continue whipping until firm.

Remove the chocolate from the double boiler and using a whisk, fold in the egg whites all at once. When the whites are almost completely incorporated, fold in the whipped cream. 

Cover the mousse and refrigerate for about 1 hour or until set

Put some whipped cream on top(optional)

Serve and enjoy
