Ingredients

8 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped fine
4 large egg yolks
6 tablespoons sugar
1 3/4 cups heavy cream
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
Dark shaved chocolate, for garnish

Melt the chocolate by adding to a bowl placed over simmering water and stirring until melted and smooth. Remove from the heat.
Whisk together the egg yolks, 4 tablespoons sugar, 3/4 cup heavy cream and a pinch of salt in a medium 2-quart curved bottom saucepan. Place over medium heat and stir constantly until the mixture is thick, about 3 minutes. Whisk in the chocolate and vanilla. Strain the mixture into a large bowl using a fine mesh sieve and place in the refrigerator until chilled, at least 30 minutes.
Beat the remaining 1 cup heavy cream and remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the chilled chocolate. Divide the mousse evenly among 4 individual serving dishes and cover with plastic wrap. Place in the refrigerator to chill for at least one hour. Serve with shaved chocolate.

FAVORITE CHOCOLATE MOUSSE

This rich and creamy chocolate mousse recipe seems super fancy but it's so easy to prepare. The coffee really enhances the flavor of the chocolate. Grand Marnier adds a subtle orange flavor and contributes to the richness of this dessert. Your friends will be very impressed when you serve them this!
