• 150 ml milk
• 2 egg yolks size L
• 30 grams sugar
• 180 grams chocolate 70 % cacao, chopped fine
• 375 mL cream

Metric - US Customary

Instructions

• Boil the milk in a small pan.
• Whisk the egg yolks with the sugar, until they are pale yellow.
• Pour, while whisking, the milk into the egg yolk mixture.
• When all the milk is added, pour everything back into the small pan.
• Bring to a boil, until the custard binds. You can check this by taking a wooden spoon and dip it into the custard. Take your finger and make a stripe in the custard. When the stripe stays visible on the spoon, the custard is done.
• Sieve the custard through a fine sieve.
• Whisk the chocolate through the custard and let it stand for a minute.
• Then whisk again until the chocolate is incorporated.
• This way you get a chocolate cream.
• Let it cool down, at room temperature for about 10 minutes.
• Beat the cream until it gets the thickness of yogurt.
• Then take a spatula and with care work it gently through the chocolate cream.
• Scoop the chocolate mousse in the serving glasses and place them in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
