1
Melt the Chocolate
In a heatproof bowl, melt the dark chocolate over a pot of simmering water, stirring until smooth. Allow it to cool slightly.
2
Whip the Cream
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip.
3
Beat the Egg Whites
In another bowl, beat the egg whites until foamy. Gradually add sugar and continue beating until stiff peaks form.
4
Combine Ingredients
Gently fold the melted chocolate into the whipped cream. Then, carefully fold in the beaten egg whites until just combined. Add vanilla extract and mix gently.
5
Chill the Mousse
Divide the mousse into serving glasses and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until set.
6
Prepare Ashta Cream and Strawberries
In a small bowl, mix the Ashta cream with a little sugar if desired. Slice the strawberries.
7
Serve
Once the mousse is set, top each serving with a dollop of Ashta cream and a few slices of fresh strawberries.
