Mutti's Mousse
Ready In: 30 mins
Serves: 6-8
Yields: 6-8 small portions
Ingredients
- 1 cup milk
- 6 tablespoons rum or 1 tablespoon vanilla
- 1 (1/4ounce) envelope gelatin
- 1 egg
- 1⁄4 cup sugar
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 3 ice cubes
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup heavy cream (whipped)
Directions
- Bring the milk and rum (or vanilla) to a boil.
- Pour into a blender.
- Add package of gelatine and blend until dissolved (just a few seconds).
- Add egg, sugar, and chocolate chips. Blend on high speed.
- When chocolate fully melts, add ice and 1 cup of heavy cream and blend until the ice melts.
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whip 1 cup of heavy cream and fold in the blender's contents.
- Pour mousse into container(s) and chill until set (usually takes a couple hours). I usually use some fancy votive candle holders, but any small container works great for individual portions. It's a good idea to make the day before.
- Serve with whipped cream (and a few chocolate shavings if you want that extra bit of presentation).
