COOK THE ISSUE #97

Chocolate Mousse

By Pielove, member

February 5th, 2009

My husband doesn't eat much dessert, and I shouldn't eat much dessert, so I made a one-third scale batch of mousse. It was a perfect three small servings. I have made mousse before, but this recipe is beautifully light yet very chocolatey. This would be a great dinner-party dessert, light but very satisfying! Of course, it was a huge hit with the four-year-old, she continued talking about it for weeks. I was a little worried about the raw egg, but the chances of salmonella are so low that I went ahead anyway. Since I licked the bowl when I was making it (such sacrifices!) and didn't get sick, I figured it was okay for general consumption. Next time I will look for pasteurized egg whites.
