Tips for Perfect Chocolate Mousse
- Use good-quality chocolate — it’s the star of the show.
- Make sure the melted chocolate is not too hot when adding yolks, or you’ll end up with scrambled eggs.
- Gently fold to maintain the mousse’s signature lightness.
Make-Ahead Friendly
Chocolate mousse is the ideal make-ahead dessert — in fact, it’s even better when it has a few hours to chill and set. It keeps beautifully in the fridge for up to 3 days, making it perfect for entertaining or stress-free dessert planning.
