[@Lilsnukems]

OMG! Laura! Just made this last night, let it set in the fridge overnight and woke up this morning with chocolate mousse on my mind. It's 6:30am and I just had to sneak a spoon in to try it. It's AMAZING! I think I just fell in love with myself! Thank you for this recipe.

[@TurtlesandNewspapers]

I made this for my boyfriend and he became my fiancee.

[@cf3129]

LOL

[@theorder1409]

Why would you hurt me like this hahahah

[@kacaramel]

oh my god, okay so i made this and i was kinda scared because i didn't know if i should use the espresso or not, AND im always afraid of using whip cream or egg whites because im so scared of over whipping. BUT I made this for my boyfriend and I nonetheless, and he loved it so much he just had to share it with his parents and i did the same. it was sooooo good and the consistency was perfect !

[@wilo2456]

Did you substitute the heavy cream with whip cream?

[@kacaramel]

Audrey Laras In canada we don't really carry heavy cream so I had to use whipping cream the difference is that whipping cream has 30% fat content and heavy cream has 35%. If you want less beating and a lighter mousse then go with heavy cream. Whipping cream is just easier to whip up but they're similar you can't taste or see much of a difference.

[@rinidaniel7646]

+kacaramel yeah I was thinking the same but still if we can only use heavy cream then I will have to ask my ex-dad for the heavy cream who lives in California

[@cabbagelettuce3340]

kacaramel yay! I'm nervous about making it too! Going to try making it this Valentine's Day! Wish me luck!

[@LeesaLilHop]

I have officially been using this recipe for 2 years. I used it for the first dinner I cooked for my boyfriend and he still asks for it this day!

[@tidabon4584]

well not to be rude shes a great awesome cook but,she cooks simple things she doesnt like u know fancy kinda like things masterchef has resturant quality dishes super fancy...

[@goodies707]

Master chef is for home cooks. They teach them how to produce restaurant dishes. She has made a lot of restaurant quality dishes I think. Keep watching her videos. There are hundreds of them.

[@imeeo9755]

WOW! it taste awesome! My husband love it so much .. Thank you for the recipe

[@gabs7584]

It looks delicious

[@beauw9391]

All those whisking.. Thumbs up for your solid biceps !

[@94legna]

Is it bad to eat the egg white raw?

[@IcyPineappleSundae]

no. only egg yolks have the chance of containing samonella

[@zquish6239]

Like IcyPineappleSundae said, the egg whites are perfectly safe to eat, it is just the egg yolks that contain Samonella.

[@girlishgamer1]

Zquish Wrong, it's the shell. FYI in countries like Japan and France eggs can be eaten raw, yolk and all.

[@TheCreamer97]

Zquish Nope it's the shell because what girlishgamer1 said is true

[@94legna]

thank you. because i know the egg yolk is bad to eat raw

[@lisarodriguez5107]

Laura I made this for potlock for work and my mom helped me follow your recipe! It's honestly the most delicious chocolate mousse I've ever had! And it was a hit with my coworkers! Thanks for this! One of my favorites.

[@irmarycruz3861]

Made this for Thanksgiving. The texture was awesome, it was so thick and smooth. Everyone loved it!! Thanks for sharing your recipe!

[@hi-hz2ji]

2018 anyone???

[@ummehaani6596]

2020 but hi

[@sarinamatnoor9058]

2022 happy new year everybody...💖

[@packermandan]

I had so many problems with this. Nothing went right. First of all my chocolate turned into a thick ball of concrete. I believe it is because the water underneath was too hot. So I did it again and even though it turned out better it still was much thicker than what is shown in the video. Secondly I whisked and whisked and whisked the heavy cream but it never got to the light fluffy peaks like in the video. It just stayed a frothy thicker type of liquid. Also...what kind of chocolate do you use? Just regular chocolate chips or baker's chocolate unsweetened or what?

[@dgkallday4u]

***** coincidentally your name is Laura too !

[@jessjohnson1921]

Water must've went into your melted chocolate. Whipping your heavy cream might just be annoying and you might not be putting enough power into whipping it. Use a mixer instead.

[@MickeyMouseStar87]

That happened to me too. You don't need heavy whipping cream, and what I did was put it back in the refrigerator to cool every minute or so. This way, It's easier to whip it to the right consistency.

[@threat_dynamics3272]

BOYCOTT AMAZON! I make zabaione or sabayon once or twice each week and tiramisu once per week so I literally spend hours beating/whipping/whisking. I long ago sprang for a copper bowl which I keep in the freezer. It will "hold the cold" and make things easier. I use only heavy whipping cream and stick it in the freezer about fifteen minutes before whipping. Using the correct whisk makes a lot of difference. You want what is called a French Balloon Whisk. A company called "Best" makes the best whips. Put your whisk in the freezer. If you can afford one use a bowl stand. That way you aren't using your body parts to control the bowl and heating it up at the same time. Set up your bowl stand. Remove the bowl, cream, and whisk from the freezer. Pour the cream and start whisking. All of what you just did should take less than 20 seconds until you start whipping. Cream doesn't whip linearly. When you start it gets soupy followed by foamy. You will whisk and whisk and whisk and whisk and them you will blink your eyes and there will be soft peaks. From there it's only a short time to stiff peaks. Other people have adequately addressed the chocolate problem.

[@wudan101]

Thank you ! I like you providing clear instructions

[@hopedavis7707]

I made this the other night , I was completely blown away,it was so delicious. I topped mine with some homemade whipped cream. amazing. Thank you Laura

[@alinachka7761]

Hey Laura, Great recipe. I tried it last weekend, however, i don't understand where i messed up. I melted the chocolate with butter and everything but when i added the egg yolk the chocolate became heavy and stiff, and basically seized. I added a small bit of chocolate to eggs and only after added the whole egg yolk but still the chocolate was a mess. Then i tried same thing without the egg yolks and the mouse turned out great. Do you know how to avoid this in the future, or what i did wrong? Thanks!

[@sinembaybee]

Omg same thing happened to me! After I added the egg yolk it became really thick and stiff I dunno what happened :(

[@jessbergstrom4781]

Maybe you guys used the wrong kind of chocolate. Maybe try using another type of chocolate becaus3 some are meant to harden faster just a suggestion though 😆

[@Silvercloud12345]

Water in the chocolate?? Whaat??

[@forgetgangstalking8646]

Silvercloud12345 yeah that wad weord

[@iffarozali5494]

a must try! i love this recipe! it is so light!! yummy! thanx laura

[@chelseagobl366]

Love the things you make

[@michaelmichael2802]

I did this and it was in the freezer for 15 minutes and it was ready lol

[@briannao636]

is there a reason why she didn't use an electric mixer?

[@misslilmeow_meow]

This is my assumption: The electronic mixer takes away the lightness and sort of, air inside the moose to give it a light texture so that's why she folds it instead of THAT way but I'm just guessing. I COULD be wrong so don't take my word for it.

[@briannao636]

takes so long by hand lol

[@wongfeihung1847]

The reason why she didn't use an electric mixer is because she was making a small portion. Would have had a higher chance of over whipping and splitting the mousse with an electric mixer with that amount. If you were to make a larger batch then you should use an electric mixer. Either or would not matter, just as long are you're cautious.

[@rayhanayasmin85]

[@123littlemissdance]

It looks so good

[@sahil565656]

you are very good teacher who teach with passion and love

[@zhubenn]

omg i just cant whip cream to save myself. ive tried it twice and it just doesnt work. my cream just skips past the "perfectly whipped" stage and skip straight to clumping. and once it clumps up the watery milk just slowly starts sipping out. what am i doing wrong? *gets bottled whipped cream*.

[@brenvagaza]

you can put the bowl with the cream on top of another bowl but with ice cold water almost like a Bain-marie but instead of hot water you put the ice cold water in this case the bowl with must touch the water and start to whipp

[@karennabarton216]

make sure you put your beaters and bowl in the freezer for 30-45 minutes before you start making it. It needs to be cold for it to work!

[@ThePhyco001]

You're whipping it too much. Once stiff peaks form stop. Whipped cream turns into butter very quickly. If you're making whipped cream add your sifted confectioner's sugar when soft peaks form and whip it fr another 2 to 3 minutes. If you want really thick whipped cream you can add a tablespoon of vanilla pudding mix or unflavored gelatin.

[@zhubenn]

But stiff peak NEVER Formed. It just reaches a watery soft peak, and then I slowed down whipping like one round per 2-3 second, barely stiff and then I start seeing tiny butter chcuks in it when I havent even reach stiff peaks.

[@ThePhyco001]

make sure you put your bowl, whisk, spatula etc in the fridge for a few hours before your start whipping. Everything should be very cold. If your kitchen is kinda hot, move to another room preferably with air conditioning

[@holidayforyou]

omg you are too cute! "I'd like to think that that's how I got my husband."

[@n.s4885]

I just love your recipe!! I make a cake out of it by adding some gelatin n setting it over an insanely dark chocolate cake base. Thank you so much Laura for all your yummy n easy recipes.

[@BravingTheOutDoors]

Been five years but obviously he was not into what your name suggests.

[@lostchild5567]

Hi, can someone help me... I tried to make this recipe twice, but every time is still too liquidity and not won't become stiff... I made the recipe step by step, but it still didn't work out...

[@Happyraccoon0808]

Was it runny when you put it all together, or was the meringue too liquidy?

[@lostchild5567]

idk,everything looked normal, untill i mixed it all together... i thought it would stiff in the frigde over night time.... but that didn't work

[@Happyraccoon0808]

lost child then you must have overmixed it. did you carefully fold the chocolate mixture into the meringue&whipping cream or did you just mix it in with a whisk or something?

[@batwomandiy4978]

Did you fold the mixture together or did you whisk it?

[@lostchild5567]

i fold and twirled it a little bit with a spatula

[@nafihaali789]

I make it every year and it is incredible

[@ambishibrahim7580]

Awesome... loving ittt... thank you so much Laura

[@LukeBeacon]

My only problem with this recipe is that you give the measurement for chocolate in CUPS, which makes variation very likely. You should give the amount of chocolate in grams. I tried using the cup method but it ended up being way too chocolatey.

[@dianemilligan3839]

I'm sure you can figure it out the measurements (grams) on your own.

[@222Brony]
