Here is a recipe for a CLEAN chocolate mousse, I love making this when I fancy a sweet treat.
- 85g dark chocolate, 70% (I used Green & Black's)
- 1 tbsp cocoa powder
- 2 egg whites
- 1 tbsp stevia
- 50g Greek yogurt
Break up the chocolate and put it into a large bowl that will fit over a pan of simmering water. Mix the cocoa with 2 tbsp cold water, and pour over the chocolate. Place the bowl over the simmering water, give it all a stir, then remove from the heat. Leave with the bowl of chocolate still over the water, stirring occasionally to check when melted.
Stir the melted chocolate, it will be quite thick. Stir in 2 tbsp boiling water and the chocolate will immediately thin down and become silky smooth. Leave to cool slightly.
Whisk the egg whites to fairly soft peaks, then whisk in the stevia until thick and glossy. Beat the yogurt into the cooled chocolate. Fold about one-third of the egg whites into the chocolate mix using a large metal spoon, then very gently fold in the rest of the whites until they are evenly mixed in – being careful not to over-mix or you will lose the volume of the mousse. Spoon into cups or ramekins and chill for a couple of hours, or overnight.
Enjoy x
