Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams dark chocolate (70% cocoa or higher)
- 300 milliliters heavy cream
- 100 grams fruit puree (e.g., raspberry, mango, or strawberry)
Instructions
Chop the dark chocolate into small pieces and place it in a heatproof bowl.
In a small saucepan, heat 150ml of the heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Do not let it boil.
Pour the hot cream over the chopped dark chocolate. Let it sit for 1-2 minutes to allow the chocolate to melt, then whisk together until smooth and glossy. Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature.
In a separate mixing bowl, whip the remaining 150ml of heavy cream using a hand mixer or whisk until soft peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip.
Gently fold the fruit puree into the cooled chocolate mixture until combined.
Next, fold the whipped cream into the chocolate-fruit mixture in three additions. Use a spatula and fold gently to preserve the light and airy texture.
Divide the mousse evenly among 4 serving glasses or bowls. Smooth the tops with a spoon if desired.
Refrigerate the mousse for at least 2 hours, or until set.
Optional: Garnish with fresh fruit, chocolate shavings, or a dollop of whipped cream before serving.
