Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups heavy cream

  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 3 egg whites

  5. Combine the mixtures: Gently fold the warm milk-gelatin mixture into the whipped cream.
  6. Incorporate the egg whites: Fold the beaten egg whites into the creamy mixture gently.
  7. Chill the mousse: Spoon the mousse into serving glasses and refrigerate for at least 4-6 hours, or overnight.
  8. Create the chocolate topping: Melt dark chocolate and drizzle it over the set mousse before serving.
