EASY CHOCOLATE MOUSSE WITHOUT EGGS
My husband and I honeymooned in Paris two years ago. We were on our way to see the Eiffel Tower when it began to rain. Quickly, we hurried into the first cafe we came across. We ordered chocolate mousse for dessert. To say that it was divine would be an understatement. I knew I wanted to recreate that dessert for my husband when we got home. Serve in wine glasses for a nice touch.

Steps:
- Place chocolate chips in a large bowl.
- Heat 1/2 cup cream in a small saucepan over medium-high heat until it begins to rise and foam, watching carefully so it doesn't spill over, 3 to 5 minutes. Pour over chocolate chips and cover for 1 minute.
- Remove cover and slowly stir with a spatula until smooth. Stir in hot coffee and vanilla extract until all chocolate has melted.
- Whip remaining 1 cup cream in a chilled glass or metal bowl with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Gently fold cream into chocolate mixture until combined.
- Spoon into glasses and refrigerate until firm, at least 3 hours.

Steps:
- Break up or chop the chocolate and place it in a heatproof bowl. Set the bowl over a saucepan of barely simmering water and allow the chocolate to melt, stirring occasionally. Once the chocolate has melted, remove it from the heat and let cool until tepid.
- In the meantime, put the egg yolks in a large bowl. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, or in a large bowl, using a handheld mixer, whip the egg whites to very firm peaks, about 5 minutes.
- When the chocolate has cooled, pour it into the bowl with the egg yolks and whisk well. Using a rubber spatula, stir in about one-third of the egg whites to lighten the mixture. Carefully spoon another third of the egg whites on top of the chocolate mixture and gently fold them in (do not stir). Add the remaining whites, folding just until the egg whites are incorporated.
- Spoon the mixture into ten 4- or 5-oz. (120- or 150-ml) ramekins or small coffee cups. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight, until set.
- Serve the chocolate mousse cold, decorated with chocolate shavings, if desired.
