Step 1

In a double boiler, heat chocolate until melted, about 15 minutes. Once melted, remove the bowl from the pot and let cool until warm to the touch, about 15 minutes.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, whip cream to a very soft peak.

Step 3

With a rubber spatula, gently fold cream into the warm chocolate until fully incorporated. Reserve at room temperature.

Step 4

Scoop two quenelles of chocolate mousse onto a plate and garnish with whatever you like (fresh fruit, for example).
