- 30 minutes to make
- Serves 8
Toasted hazelnuts and Frangelico take this classic French chocolate dessert to a new level. It’s delicious served with fresh strawberries and a steaming cup of coffee.
Ingredients
- 2 cups heavy cream shopping list
- 4 egg yolks shopping list
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar shopping list
- 2 tablespoons Frangelico (hazelnut liquor) shopping list
- 7 ounces bittersweet chocolate, melted and kept lukewarm shopping list
- 1/3 cup chopped, toasted hazelnuts shopping list
How to make it
- Heat 2/3 cup of cream in small saucepan until it just begins to steam. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and sugar, and then add ½ cup hot cream, whisking constantly, until the mixture is thoroughly combined. Add the warm egg-cream blend back into the hot cream in the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture reaches 165 degrees on a candy thermometer. Remove from the heat and stir in the hazelnut liquor and melted chocolate. Chill the chocolate custard thoroughly.
- Beat remaining 1 1/3 cups of cream in a separate bowl until stiff peaks form. Thoroughly stir ½ cup of the whipped cream into the chilled chocolate custard, and then gently fold in the remaining cream.
- The chocolate mousse is ready when the chocolate custard is thoroughly incorporated into the whipped cream, and no marbling shows. Serve chilled garnished with toasted hazelnuts.
