Serves 4
120g (41/2 oz ) dark chocolate
70% cocoa solids
4 eggs, separated
1 tblsp caster sugar (optional )
1/Break the chocolate into small pieces and place them in a medium-sized heatproof bowl.
Place the bowl over a pan of simmering water ( making sure the bowl does not touch the water ).
When the chocolate has melted, take it off the heat.
2/ Whisk the egg whites in a very clean bowl, until they form stiff peaks.
Stir in the optional sugar and whisk a little more--careful not to over do.
3/ In a bowl whisk the egg yolks together, then beat them into the chocolate with a wooden spoon.
Fold in the egg whites slowly mixing do not beat as you want to keep the mousse light
Spoon the mixture into individual pots or a large serving dish and place in the fridge for 4 hours to set.
