After the tiramisu without raw eggs that you enjoyed so much, here is a chocolate mousse recipe based on whipped cream, ideal for children, pregnant women, or anyone who wants to indulge ;)

Ingredients:
I used the chocolate Guanaja from Valrhona: code ILETAITUNGATEAU for 20% off everything on the site (affiliate).

Mousse chocolat sans oeufs 8

Preparation time: 10 minutes + resting

 Ingredients:

 60g of whole milk

 160g of Guanaja chocolate
 
 Recipe:

 Melt the chocolate gently.

 Heat the milk, then pour it in several times over the chocolate, mixing well after each addition to achieve a good emulsion.

 When the mixture reaches 60°C, whip the cream until it is not too stiff.

 Pour into individual pots or a small bowl for a sharing version, then let crystallize for at least 2 to 3 hours in the refrigerator.
 
 If you prefer to make a milk chocolate mousse, you can replace the 160g of Guanaja with 200g of Jivara chocolate, and in that case, wait until the mixture reaches 50°C before adding the whipped cream.

 Then, you just need to add (or not) whatever you want on top of the mousse (toasted hazelnuts, cocoa nibs, fleur de sel...) and enjoy!
