Soft and Simple Chocolate Mousse

I thought that since chocolate hardens when you cool it, I could use that property to make a mousse. So I thought up this easy recipe using a chocolate bar and fresh cream.
-After the chocolate is melted, quickly add it to the cream before it begins to harden.
-Adding rum or cointreau gives it a more grown-up taste.
-You can use any chocolate you want: milk, bitter, etc. Recipe by Mirusuke
Cooking Instructions
- 1
Whip the 100-150 ml of fresh cream until stiff peaks form. 100 ml will give you a sweet and rich dessert! 150 ml gives a light and airy texture.
- 2
Put the listed 2 tablespoons of fresh cream into a heat resistant bowl. Break the chocolate into small pieces and add to the bowl. Microwave (at 600 W) for 1 minute.
- 3
Remove from the microwave and stir well with a spatula to completely melt the chocolate.
- 4
Add 1/4 of the cream into Step 3 and mix together well. Add in the rest of the cream and mix (be careful not to mix too much!). If you're planning on using some, add the rum or cointreau etc. at this point.
- 5
Pour into a dish or tray and refrigerate for 2 hours or more, then it's done.
- 6
Use a spoon dipped in water to scoop out the mousse from the tray. Since it's sweet, it's nice to dish up with some refreshing fruit sauce or fruit.

I made this for my daughter who loves chocolate. We had some chocolate pens in our house, so I came up with some designs with them.Please adjust the amount of sugar according to the sweetness of your bar chocolate. Please don't use milk chocolate. In Step 2, it's best to melt the chocolate using a double boiler. You can also melt it in a microwave. In this case, keep an eye on it while microwaving. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221 cookpad.japan -
Chocolate Mousse Chocolate Mousse
I made this because I didn't have any chocolate mousse!!If possible, let it chill in the fridge for a firmer and more delicious finish.Let the chocolate cool down after microwaving it in step 1. (Hint: When you mix the chocolate it should leave traces behind.)If you whip the heavy cream while the bowl is still submerged in ice water, the process goes a lot faster!!
