Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Dark chocolate, chopped
- 150 milliliters Hot water
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 300 milliliters Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
Instructions
Place the chopped dark chocolate in a high-powered blender.
Pour the hot water over the chocolate and let it sit for 1-2 minutes to allow the chocolate to melt slightly.
Add the granulated sugar and a pinch of salt to the blender.
Blend the mixture on high speed until smooth and glossy, about 30 seconds. Scrape down the sides as needed.
Add the heavy cream and vanilla extract to the blender.
Blend again on medium speed until the mixture thickens slightly and becomes airy, about 1-2 minutes. Be careful not to overmix, as this can split the cream.
Pour the mousse into serving glasses or bowls and smooth the tops with a spoon.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the mousse is set and chilled.
Garnish with whipped cream, chocolate shavings, or fresh fruit before serving, if desired.
