Decadent Toblerone Mousse
Toblerone Mousse is a light, airy chocolate dessert built around the honey-almond flavor of Toblerone bars. Melted chocolate is folded into whipped cream to create a mousse that sets in the refrigerator in about 2 hours. It serves well in individual glasses and requires no baking.
Equipment
- Double boiler or heatproof bowl and saucepan
- Mixing Bowls
- Electric mixer or whisk
- Spatula
Ingredients
- 7 ounces Toblerone chocolate chopped into small pieces
- 1 cup heavy cream cold
- 2 large eggs separated
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
Instructions
- Melt the Toblerone chocolate using a double boiler, ensuring the bowl doesn't touch the simmering water beneath. Stir occasionally until smooth, then set aside to cool slightly without hardening.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk the egg yolks with granulated sugar until thick and pale. Gently fold the slightly cooled chocolate into this mixture.
- In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until they form soft peaks. Gently fold these into the chocolate mixture.
- Whisk the cold heavy cream until it holds stiff peaks. Carefully fold this into the chocolate mixture until fully incorporated.
- Spoon the mousse into serving bowls or glasses. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.
Notes
- For an added nutty crunch, consider folding in chopped roasted almonds.
- For a lighter version, use Greek yogurt instead of some heavy cream.
