Chocolate Mousse (Chapon House)


Chocolate Mousse (Chapon House)

25 April 2023

Difficulty: toque

This is not the first chocolate mousse recipe on the blog, but this one is perfect if, like me, you often have egg whites to use up, for a change from financiers and other macarons 😉 This is the recipe from the Chapon house, found on the instagram account of the Académie du Goût. An electric mixer and a few hours of waiting and you're good to go!

Ingredients:
I used Caraïbes chocolate from Valrhona: code ILETAITUNGATEAU for a 20% discount on the entire site (affiliate).

Preparation time: 20 minutes + rest in the refrigerator
For 4 to 6 chocolate mousses depending on their size:

Ingredients:

185g of dark chocolate
100g of semi-skimmed milk
1 egg yolk
6 egg whites
37g of cane sugar
Optional: crispy chocolate pearls and/or cocoa nibs and/or fleur de sel for decoration

Recipe:

Bring the milk to a boil.
Pour it over the partially melted or finely chopped chocolate, mix well then add the egg yolk and mix again, so as to obtain a shiny ganache.

Beat the egg whites with the sugar until not too firm, incorporate them delicately into the chocolate then pour the mousse into verrines (or into a salad bowl for a sharing version).
