Step 1

Put the chocolate in a mixing bowl. Heat it in the microwave at high power for one minute. Stir well and try distributing the heat to as many chocolate pieces as possible.

Step 2

If the chocolate is not all melted yet, you can put it back in the microwave for about 20-30 seconds at full power. And quickly stir well until all melts.

Step 3

Then you whisk your double cream using a handheld mixer, a standing mixer, or a hand whisk until the cream is stiff and firm.

Step 4

Pour your slightly cooled chocolate melt into the cream and keep stirring or whisking until both cream and chocolate are mixed and become mousse.

Step 5

Place the chocolate pieces and cream in a bowl.

Step 6

Boil water in a pan and put the bowl over the pan. Try not to let the water touch the bowl. Let the heat from the water melt the chocolate.

Step 7

Stir well until all chocolate is melted and the mixture becomes emulsified.

Step 8

Take the bowl off the pan and let the mixture cool down to room temperature. Leave the chocolate mixture in the fridge for about half an hour before whisking it with a handheld mixer. Whisk it until the mixture is fluffy and creamy.

Step 9

Spoon the mousse into your serving glass, and chill them in the fridge/ refrigerator.

Step 10

You can enjoy the mousse with some berries (frozen or fresh), chocolate biscuits, or even whipping cream.
