Raspberry Chocolate Mousse
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 8 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 egg yolks
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of fresh raspberries, 1/4 cup of granulated sugar, and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the raspberries break down and the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool.
- Place 8 ounces of chopped semisweet chocolate in a heatproof bowl. In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup of heavy cream until it just begins to simmer. Pour the hot cream over the chocolate and let it sit for 1 minute. Stir until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth. Let it cool to room temperature.
- In a large bowl, whip 1 cup of heavy cream and 2 tablespoons of powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
- In another bowl, beat 3 egg yolks until pale and thick. Gently fold the cooled raspberry mixture into the egg yolks.
- Fold the melted chocolate mixture into the raspberry and egg yolk mixture until well combined.
- Gently fold in the whipped cream and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until no streaks remain.
- Divide the mousse among serving glasses or bowls. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until set.
- Garnish with fresh raspberries and chocolate shavings before serving. Enjoy!
Raspberry Chocolate Mousse is a decadent dessert that originated in France. This luscious treat combines the rich, velvety texture of chocolate mousse with the vibrant, tangy flavor of fresh raspberries. Renowned French pastry chefs, such as Pierre Hermé and Gaston Lenôtre, have contributed to the popularity of this dessert with their innovative recipes. The best versions of this dish can be found in upscale patisseries and fine dining restaurants in Paris, where the use of high-quality chocolate and ripe raspberries is essential. For a twist on the classic recipe, some chefs incorporate raspberry liqueur or coulis for an extra burst of flavor.
