Ingredients:

1 cup milk chocolate
230g
1 cup dark chocolate
230g
4 eggs
200g
1/3 cup sugar
63g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ingredients:
- Break the milk chocolate and dark chocolate into small pieces and place them in a heatproof bowl.
2. Melt the Chocolate:
- Set the heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water (make sure the bowl does not touch the water) and slowly melt the chocolate. Stir occasionally until smooth and fully melted.
- Alternatively, you can melt the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl by microwaving it in 20-second intervals, stirring between each interval until completely melted.
3. Separate the Eggs:
- Separate the egg yolks from the whites, placing the yolks in one bowl and the whites in another clean, dry bowl. Ensure that no yolk gets into the white, as this will prevent proper whipping.
4. Whip the Egg Whites:
- Using a clean electric mixer, whisk the egg whites until they form soft peaks.
- Gradually add the sugar, continuing to whisk until the mixture forms stiff, glossy peaks.
5. Combine Yolks and Chocolate:
- Allow the melted chocolate to cool slightly but still remain liquid.
- Stir the egg yolks into the melted chocolate until fully combined.
6. Fold in Egg Whites:
- Gently fold a spoonful of the whipped egg whites into the chocolate mixture to lighten it.
- Carefully fold in the rest of the egg whites in batches, ensuring you retain as much air as possible to keep the mousse light and fluffy.
7. Chill the Mousse:
- Spoon the mousse into serving dishes or a large serving bowl.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until set.
8. Serve:
- Once the mousse is set, you can serve it as is or garnish with a dollop of whipped cream, chocolate shavings, or fresh berries.

Tips:

- Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor and texture. The better the chocolate, the more delicious your mousse will be.

- Separate the eggs right out of the refrigerator as they are easier to handle when cold, but make sure to bring the egg whites to room temperature before whipping for more volume.

- To ensure a smooth mousse, be careful when folding in the whipped egg whites. Use a gentle, sweeping motion to maintain the mousse's light and airy texture.

- Chill the mousse for at least 2 hours to allow it to set properly and develop its full flavor. For an even more indulgent dessert, let it chill overnight.

- Serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of cocoa powder for an extra touch of elegance.
