Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Break the milk chocolate into small pieces to ensure it melts evenly.
- Separate the eggs into yolks and whites in two distinct bowls.
- Use a double boiler or microwave to gently melt the milk chocolate. If using a microwave, heat in short bursts of 15-20 seconds, stirring in between until completely melted and smooth. Allow it to cool slightly but do not let it harden again.
- Add the 2 tablespoons of sugar to the egg yolks.
- Whisk the yolks and sugar together until the mixture becomes pale and fluffy.
- Gradually add the cooled melted chocolate to the egg yolk mixture. Make sure to mix continuously to combine well, creating a smooth, homogeneous mixture.
- Using an electric mixer, beat the egg whites until they form stiff peaks. Ensure that the bowl and beaters are clean and dry for best results.
- Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the chocolate-yolk mixture. Use a spatula and a light hand to incorporate the whites without deflating them, ensuring a fluffy and airy mousse.
- Scoop the mousse into serving dishes or glasses.
- Place the dishes in the refrigerator for at least 2-3 hours, allowing the mousse to set and chill thoroughly.
- Once set, the choc-cherry mousse is ready to be served. Garnish with fresh cherries, chocolate shavings, or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra touch, if desired. Enjoy!
Tips:
- Use high-quality milk chocolate for the best flavor and texture.
- Be careful when separating the eggs to ensure no yolk gets into the whites.
- Gently fold the ingredients to maintain the mousse's airy texture.
- Chill the mousse for at least a few hours before serving to allow it to set properly.
- Garnish with fresh cherries or a sprinkle of grated chocolate for an extra touch of elegance.
Congratulations! You've now mastered the art of making Choc-cherry mousse. This delectable dessert combines rich chocolate with the sweet tang of cherries, creating a harmonious flavor profile. Serve it chilled and enjoy the delightful experience of each creamy and fluffy spoonful.
