Mousse Ingredients

Method

Mousse Preparation

  1. 1

    Melt Chocolate and Butter

    In a heatproof bowl, combine the dark chocolate and unsalted butter. Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler method) and stir until melted and smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

  2. 2

    Whisk Eggs and Sugar

    In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs and granulated sugar together until pale and frothy. You can do this by hand or with an electric mixer on medium speed.

  3. 3

    Combine Mixtures

    Once the chocolate mixture is slightly cooled, stir in the vanilla extract. Gently fold in the egg mixture into the chocolate until well combined.

  4. 4

    Whip Cream

    In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip, as this can make the mousse grainy.

  5. 5

    Fold in Whipped Cream

    Gently fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture in three additions. This will help keep the mousse light and airy.

  6. 6

    Add Toffee Bits

    Fold in the toffee bits until evenly distributed throughout the mousse mixture.

  7. 7

    Chill

    Spoon the mousse into serving cups or bowls. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until set.

  8. 8

    Serve

    Serve chilled, garnished with additional toffee bits if desired. Enjoy your delicious chocolate toffee mousse!
