A formula for Mousse au Chocolat

Light, airy, flavorful and good texture. Enough said.

Single Serving Mousse au Chocolat by Felicity Cloake

- 1 egg, separated
- 30 g dark chocolate (at least 50% cocoa)
- 1 tsp sugar (or to taste)

1. Break the chocolate into pieces and put in a bowl over, but not touching, a pan of simmering water. When the chocolate begins to melt, turn the heat off. Separate the egg.

2. Whisk the egg whites into soft peaks, add the sugar, and whisk briefly.

3. Mix the egg yolk quickly into the melted chocolate and then whisk in a third of the egg white. Fold the rest very gently into the mixture until just combined (be careful not to overmix), and then put into bowls and refrigerate for at least four hours until set.
