Ingredients

2 ounces bittersweet chocolate or 2 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
2 tablespoons butter, softened
3 tablespoons whipping cream
1 tablespoon sugar
1 dash cinnamon
1 dash ground nutmeg
1 dash ground ginger
1 dash ground cardamom
1 egg yolk
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 egg white
2 teaspoons icing sugar
whipped cream (optional)

Steps:

Melt chocolate in a heat-proof bowl put on a saucepan with warm water (not boiling). Personnaly, I would melt the chocolate in the microwave. When the chocolate is melted, remove the bowl from the heat, and add the butter while whisking.
In a small saucepan, mix cream, sugar, spices until sugar is dissolved. Put the small saucepan on low heat and cook until there is bubble around the saucepan. Remove from the heat, add the egg yolk while whisking.
At low heat, heat this mixture (don't let it boil), stirring until enough thick to coat a wooden spoon. Add this mixture to the chocolate mixture by passing it through a fine sieve. Add vanilla and whisk until bright and unctuous. Let cool.
Beat egg white until soft picks. While beating, add icing sugar. Add slowly to the chocolate mixture and stir well.
Pour the mousse in ramequins or any small bowls. Put in the fridge for 4 to 6 hours until set. You can keep them in the fridge up to 2 days. If wanted, garnish with whipped cream.
