Directions:
- Soft chocolate mousse:
- Melt chocolate over simmering water of a water bath.
- Whip egg yolks with 1/3 cup powdered sugar until pale and airy, place whipped yolks in medium sized bowl.
- Add warm melted chocolate and fold until just mixed. Wash bowl and wipe thoroughly.
- Dissolve 1/3 cup granulated sugar and 1/4 cup water in small pot, bring to a boil, cook to 230 degrees on a candy thermometer.
- While sugar is boiling slowly whip whites to soft peak.
- When sugar is ready, slowly pour into whites while beating at a medium speed in a steady stream.
- Continue to whip until stiff peaks form.
- Remove whites, spoon whites on top of yolks but do not fold in.
- Whip cream and 1/3 cup powdered sugar until medium stiff peak, now fold in whites until just mixed. Add cream and fold until incorporated, do not over fold.
- Store in refrigerator until ready to use (should be used as soon as possible).
- Solid chocolate mousse:
- Melt chocolate hot, over double broiler (do not burn chocolate), heat until it is warm to the touch.
- Whip cream until very soft peaks form (lines show in slightly whipped cream).
- Very, very quickly add chocolate to cream and fold in, mixture may look broken but keep folding until everything is smooth, but do not overmix.
- Place in bowl, cover and refrigerate until set.
- To serve, place the two mousses in composition to contrast each other. Garnish with berries and crisp a cookie, if desired
