As soon as my son enters any bakery shop, he goes crazy for chocolate mousse. Well i wont complain here much as i myself love mousse a lot. And what better it can be if it’s a chocolate mousse. Always wanted an easy recipe of chocolate mousse that needs no eggs. After a long search i finally found an amazing recipe in Sharmi’s Passion. The recipe was quick and so perfect. Though the original recipe was adapted by Sharmilee from Tarla Dalal’s website but the recipe i adapted is from http://www.sharmispassions.com/2015/02/eggless-chocolate-mousse-recipe.html
The recipe was so easy and quick that i made the mousse in no time and the moment it was set in the fridge, me and my son just couldn’t wait to enjoy it. The taste was as good as any bakery could have provided us. Loved it completely!

Ingredients

- Chop and melt chocolate in a double boiler. Make sure the above bowl in the boiler doesn't touch the water surface. Keep stirring till you get a silky texture. This may take few minutes. You can use any good brand of chocolate compound. I used Morde's Milk Chocolate compound. But if you want a dark color and a strong taste you can use dark compound.
- In a large bowl add cream and blend with an electric or hand blender till soft peaks are visible. Keep aside.
- After the chocolate melts properly, whisk it and allow it to cool completely. Make sure the chocolate cools down properly other wise it may cuddle when mixed with cream.
- While the melted chocolate is cooling down, add hone and fruit juice and whisk again. Do not add honey and fruit juice while melting the chocolate hence it may crumble the chocolate and spoil its texture.
- When the melted chocolate is cooled completely, add into the cream and blend again for few seconds to make sure the chocolate incorporates well with the cream.
- Pour the mix into serving glasses or bowl and garnish with chocolate shavings and cherries.
- Keep the bowls in the refrigerator and let the mousse set for 2-3 hrs.
- Enjoy chilled! You can also pipe some whipped cream to make it look more beautiful.
