Re: Anything and everything Chocolate.


Chocolate mousse
#2

This mousse does not use egg whites and is less fluffy than the previous mousse.


4 large egg yolks

4 TBLSP of sugar

2 cups heavy whipping cream

8 ounces bitter-sweet chocolate (170 gram)

1 tsp pure vanilla extract

1.) In a medium saucepan , whisk together eggs yolks, 2 TBLSP of the sugar, and heavy cream.

2.) Cook over medium-low low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture coats the back of a spoon and leaves a "track" when a finger is run across it. this takes 3-4 minutes. DO NOT BOIL !!!

3.) remove from heat; whisk in the melted chocolate and vanilla. Cover with plastic wrap touching the mixture. Chill until cool.

4.) Use an electric mixer and beat cream with the remaining 2 TBLSP of sugar until stiff peaks form.

5.Using a rubber spatula, carefully fold 1/3 of the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture. Then gently fold the remaining whipped cream into the chocolate mixture.

6.) Spoon into serving dishes. cover, and chill at leat 1 hour before serving.

7.) remove from refrigerator 1 hour before serving.

Re: Anything and everything Chocolate.

I have discovered the delights, or should I say acquired taste, of 100% chocolate. It was difficult but worked up from 80% and now eat nothing but 100%. It was hard work but as I don't eat sugar it is the only way I can have chocolate.

I can imagine it was difficult. I find 80% is verging on the bitter.

100% chocolate Ms d00d will love the sound of that.

How does one get their hands on it? Is it legal? Who's your dealer?
