Chocolate Mousse

Nobody can say this: “I don’t like chocolate mousse”. It is impossible! It is full of chocolate and that creamy taste can be even seductive at some point. Do you want to surprise your guest ( or just yourself J )  with an extremely delicious but a very easy and quickly-prepared dessert? Then you will try this recipe definitely. I used my friend’s recipe as baseline and did some little changes. It became semi-sweet, fruity and creamy. Here is the recipe.


Ingredients

·         180 gr milk chocolate ( quiet unusual but I gave the bitterness with another ingredient J )
·         55 gr butter
·         1 cup (40 ml) Vanilla espresso (I used 1 nespresso capsule of Vanilio, you can of course use standard espresso and add a 1 tsp of vanilla for flavor.)
·         20 ml milk
·         1 egg yolk
·         250 ml crème-fraiche
·         250 gr raspberries
·         Whipped cream
·         Grated chocolate

Methods
  1.  Put the chocolate, butter, espresso and milk in a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water and stir it occasionally.
  2.  Once the chocolate totally melted put the egg yolk and start to stir it immediately and fast so that egg yolk do not cook in the chocolate mix, if so you will see yellow egg particles in the mix and whole chocolate is ruined.
  3.  After 2 - 3 minutes of constant stirring, put the bowl aside and let the chocolate mix cool down.
  4.  Put the crème-fraiche in an another bowl and whip it till thickened (app 3 min). (if it is not thick enough, you will get a soft form which you don’t want.)
  5. Add the chocolate mix into the thickened crème-fraiche and mix them very well.
  6. Transfer the mousse into 4 - 6 bowls (according to the size of your bowls.)
  7. Put them in the refrigerator for at least 1 – 2 hours.

Serving Tip: Here comes the fruity and more creamy part!
o   Chopped the raspberries (it can be also blueberries or blackberries.) into small pieces.
o   Put the chopped raspberries on the top of the mousse.
o   Top with the whipped cream and grated chocolate


Enjoy!

Hic kimseden bunu duyamazsiniz: “Ben cikolatali mousse sevmiyorum.” Imkansiz! Bir kere bu tatli neredeyse sadece ve sadece cikolatayla yapiliyor. Kim boyle bir tatliya hayir diyebilir ki?! Siz de benim gibi misafirlerinize (veya sadece kendinize J) ultra lezzetli ama bir o kadar da kolay bir tatli hazirlamak istiyorsaniz bunu kesinlikle denemelisiniz. Bir arkadasimdan aldigim tarifin uzerinde birkac degisiklik yaparak yari-tatli, meyvemsi, bol kremali cikolatali mousse hazirladim. Iste tarifi.

Malzemeler
  • 180 gr sutlu cikolata (Normalde bitter cikolata kullanilir, fakat ben bitter tadini baska bir malzemeyle verdim.)
  •  55 gr tereyagi
  •  40 ml vanilya aromali espresso (1 nespresso Vanilio kapsulu kullandim ama siz ayni tad icin normal espresso ve 1 cay kasigi vanilya da kullanabilirsiniz.)
  •   20 ml sut
  •   1 yumurta sarisi
  •   250 ml krema
  •    250 gr frambuaz
  •    Hazir krema
  •    Cikolata parcalari

Yapilis
  1. Cikolata, tereyagi, espresso ve sutu bir kaba koyup ara sira karistirarak benmari usulu eritin.
  2. Cikolata tamamen eridikten sonra yumurta sarisini ekleyin ve hemen cirpma teliyle surekli ve seri halde karistirin. Eger karistirmazsaniz yumurta piser ve kucuk sari parcalar gormeye baslarsiniz ki bu butun cikolata karisiminiz cope gitmesi anlamina gelir.
  3. Yaklasik 3 dakika karistirmanin sonunda cikolata karisimini sogumaya birakin.
  4. Baska bi kaba kremayi koyun ve iyice sertlesene kadar cirpin. Kremanin sert olmasi onemli yoksa mousse formunu tutturamazsiniz, sulu olur.
  5. Sertlesen kremaya cikolata karisimini ekleyin ve iyice karistirin.
  6. Servis kaplarina paylastirin. (kaplarinizin buyuklugune gore  4 – 6 kap cikar.)
  7. Buzdolabinda en az 1 – 2 saat sogumaya birakin.

Servis icin: Iste burasi meyvemsi ve bol kremali yapmak icin!
o   Frambuazlari kucuk parcalar halinde dograyin. (Frambuaz yerine yaban mersini ya da bogurtlen de kullanabilirsiniz.)
o   Kaplarin uzerinlerine uzerini kapatacak sekilde ekleyin.
o   Hazir kremayla susleyip uzerine cikolata parcalarini ekleyerek servis yapin.

Afiyet olsun!
