5.Melt the chocolate in a bowl placed over a pan of simmering water. Allow to cool slightly, then fold in the whipped egg whites in 2 batches. Gently fold in the whipped cream in 2 batches.
  • Serves 4-6. – Ensure beaters and bowls are scrupulously clean as a trace of grease will prevent egg whites from whipping. – Mousse can be kept in the fridge for 2 days. Keep covered so it doesn’t take on any other flavours. PER SERVE (6) Energy 353kcal, 1481kj • Protein 4g • Total Fat 23.8g • Saturated Fat 15.1g • Carbohydrate 26.8g • Fibre 0.8g • Sodium 51mg
