Decadent 2-ingredient Chocolate Mousse

• 6 oz bittersweet chocolate, chopped
• 6 eggs, seperated

1. Melt the chocolate slowly in a double boiler, over simmering water.
2. Remove from heat and beat egg yolks into chocolate with electric mixer.
3. In a separate large bowl, beat egg whites to a stiff peak.
4. Stir a large spoonful of egg whites into chocolate mixture to loosen.
5. Then gently fold remaining egg whites into chocolate.
6. Pour into serving glasses and chill in refrigerator until set, 4 to 5 hours.
7. Will keep up to four days in refrigerator.**

Notes:

• This recipe is super simple to scale, simply use 1 egg and 1 oz of chocolate for each serving.
• I recommend using pasteurized eggs, if unavailable, do not serve to young children, pregnant women, or those with weak immune systems due to the eggs.
• **If you are not serving it the same day, I would recommend adding ~1/2 tsp cream of tartar to the egg whites in order to keep them from separating, which can occur if not eaten soon.
  

Yields 6 servings.
