After releasing an article on chocolate I had to share with you one of my favorite chocolate-based recipes. And here is a super simple and delicious recipe of chocolate mousse. You’ll only need 2 ingredients: chococolate and eggs. And a mixer. That’s it! The eggs will be used raw, so it’s not suitable for pregnant women. In any case, take good-quality eggs and DON’T wash them (by wahing eggs you are pushing bacteria on the egssshell surface inside the egg).
This is a classic recipe that I learnt at school, but I prefer adding there a bit of crushed chocolate to add a little crunch to the fluffy texture of mousse. And I use 70% dark chocolate because I love the TRUE taste of cacao and it has more nutritional interest and benefits. But you can use your favorite chocolate. And can you believe, that one serving of this chocolate mousse has less than 10g of sugar? Enjoy every bite of it!
