My great aunts recipe couldnt be easier.
Chocolate frosting for a cake, or chocolate sauce for ice cream?
It takes about five minutes to prepare.

You do need to allow this mousse plenty of time to chill before serving.
Make it up to a day in advance, then serve it straight from the fridge.
Chocolate mousse is a blank canvas, and if youd like to add other flavors, you certainly can.
Simply Recipes / Coco Morante
Add a dash of cinnamon for a flavor reminiscent of Mexican hot chocolate.
Substitute a few drops of peppermint extract for the vanilla extract, and youll have a peppermint chocolate mousse.
Or top your mousse with a few fresh raspberries or a raspberry coulis for a fruity twist.
Use pasteurized eggs if youre averse to using raw eggs due to food safety concerns.
you might either purchase them at the store orpasteurize your own.
It should be steaming but not actively boiling.
Add the eggs, sugar, vanilla, and salt to the blender.
Blend at high speed until the mousse is smooth and slightly aerated, about 1 minute.
Serve the mousse chilled, on its own or with whipped cream and chocolate shavings on top.
They will keep, covered, in the fridge for up to 3 days.
