Chocolate Mousse (3 servings)

• 150 grams chocolate
• 3 egg whites
• 50 g sugar
• 2.5 dl heavy cream
• 1 tsp vanilla sugar
• A pinch of salt

1. Melt the chocolate in a double boiler or in the microwave until smooth and lump-free. Set aside and let it cool slightly.
2. Whisk the egg whites and a pinch of salt until soft peaks form. Gradually add the sugar while continuing to whisk until stiff peaks form. The egg white mixture should be glossy and firm.
3. In another bowl, whisk the heavy cream and vanilla sugar until it becomes fluffy.
4. Carefully pour the melted chocolate over the whipped cream. Use a spatula to fold the chocolate into the cream.
5. Then, gently fold the whipped egg white mixture into the chocolate-cream mixture using a spatula until everything is well combined.
6. Divide the chocolate mousse into serving bowls or glasses.
7. Refrigerate the chocolate mousse for at least 2 hours, or until it is set and firm.
8. Serve the chocolate mousse cold, preferably topped with some whipped cream or fresh berries for extra flavor and decoration.

Let the mousse set well in the refrigerator before serving, and feel free to garnish with fresh berries, some grated chocolate, or a dusting of cocoa. The result is an elegant and irresistible dessert that is sure to impress, whether you make it for guests or just want to treat yourself to something special.
