Milk Chocolate Mousse Recipe 465

MILK CHOCOLATE MOUSSE

Steps:

• Beat the egg yolks with electric beaters for about 3 minutes, or until pale yellow and increased in volume. Then add the sugar slowly, while beating.
• Heat 1 cup of the heavy cream in a medium saucepan just until it starts to bubble around the edges. Gradually drizzle it into the egg yolk mixture, whisking briskly as you add it.
• Pour the whole thing back into the pan and cook until the mixture thickens. Bring it just to the brink of boiling, but don't let it boil.
• Take off the heat and add the chopped chocolate. Stir to melt the chocolate completely. Chill for 2 hours, giving it a stir now and then. You can speed up the chilling process by putting it in the freezer for part of the time.
• Whip the remaining 1 1/2 cups whipping cream until it holds firm peaks. Gently fold the whipped cream into the chocolate until no streaks remain. You want to try to maintain the integrity of the whipped cream as much as possible.
• Spoon the mousse into small jars or cups and chill for at least an hour or two before serving. Garnish with whipped cream and chocolate shavings.

Steps:

• Melt the chocolate and butter in a double boiler. Set aside to cool a little.
• Whip the cream with an electric mixer on high for about a minute. Turn the mixer to low while adding the sugar, then turn back to high and whip to stiff peaks.
• Whisk the egg yolks in a pitcher and add the vanilla.
• Next, temper the eggs by adding a little of the melted chocolate. Then pour the eggs back into the bowl of melted chocolate and stir to combine. Fold in three-quarters of the whipped cream (refrigerate the remaining whipped cream for serving). Spoon the mousse into serving glasses or bowls and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
• Serve the mousse with dollops of whipped cream and garnish with grated chocolate and gummy worms.

CHOCOLATE MOUSSE

Steps:

• For the mousse: Melt the chocolate and butter in a double boiler. Remove and allow to cool a little.
• Add the cream to a large bowl and start to whip using a hand mixer. Slowly add the sugar and continue to whip until you have stiff peaks, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Place the egg yolks in a pitcher, add the vanilla and whisk together by hand.
• Temper the egg yolks by adding a little of the melted chocolate to them and whisking together. Pour the yolks into the bowl of melted chocolate and stir in gently.
• Fold three-fourths of the whipped cream into the chocolate, reserving the rest.
• Divide between 4 serving glasses.
• Gently fold the raspberry preserves into the reserved whipped cream until you achieve a swirled appearance. Spoon some of the swirled whipped cream on top of the mousse in each glass.
• Place the glasses into the fridge and chill for 1 hour. Remove from the fridge and decorate with Marbled Chocolate Curls before serving.
• Add the semi-sweet and white chocolate to separate small microwave-safe bowls or pitchers. Add 2 teaspoons of the coconut oil to each. Pop in the microwave together for 1 minute. Stir each until smooth, microwaving for another 10 to 15 seconds, if needed, to fully melt the chocolate.
• Lay a sheet pan on the counter upside down. Start by pouring the white chocolate in a zig-zag pattern over the underside of the cookie sheet; do not get too close to the edges. Repeat with the semi-sweet chocolate, making sure to fill the holes where there is no white chocolate. Using an offset spatula or knife, spread the chocolates in a very thin layer, then stick the sheet pan in the freezer for 2 to 3 minutes. This step is key!
• After a few minutes, check the chocolate by pressing it with your finger; it should leave only the slightest mark, but not an actual depression.
• Using a somewhat sharp-edged spatula, scrap the chocolate from the bottom of the pan. If the chocolate is the correct temperature, it should begin to curl. If the chocolate is breaking, it is too cold so let it sit for a few seconds to warm, then try again. If it gets too soft, stick it back in the freezer for a minute.
• Pretty soon you will have some pretty marbled chocolate curls. Use as a garnish immediately on chilled desserts or immediately transfer to a cold plate and place back in the freezer to harden. Store in an airtight container in the freezer until you need them. The curls are perfect for topping your favorite pies, cakes or elevating a simple fruit platter.

MILK CHOCOLATE MOUSSE

Steps:

• Bring a small pot of water to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Combine the coffee, chocolate and rum, if using, in a medium metal bowl that can sit atop the pot of water without touching the water. Place the bowl on the pot and heat until the chocolate is melted, stirring often. When the mixture is smooth, remove from the heat and set aside to cool until no longer warm to the touch.
• Whip the cream at high speed to speed to soft peaks, about 1 minutes.
• Fold half of the cream into the chocolate until combined but not fully incorporated and some streaks remain. Add the remaining cream in two batches, mixing to fully incorporate when the last batch is added.
• If you want to serve it on its own, you can our it into dessert dishes to set or leave it in the bowl to scoop when you're ready to serve. Refrigerate until set, at least 1 hour, or up to 48 hours.
