Ingredients

115 g (1 cup) dark chocolate
45 g (3 tbsp) unsalted butter
2 egg yolks
375 ml (1 ½ cup) cream 35%
13 g (1 tbsp) sugar
2 ml (½ tsp) vanilla extract
5 ml (1 tsp) dulse flakes

Preparation

Melt the chocolate and butter in a bain-marie, stirring constantly.
Remove from heat. Once lukewarm, add the egg yolks, whisking gently until the mixture is smooth. Leave to stand for a few minutes at room temperature.
In a separate bowl, whip cream, sugar and vanilla until stiff peaks form.
Fold the whipped cream into the chocolate with a spatula, taking care not to “break” the egg whites.
Gently fold in the seaweed flakes and pour the chocolate mousse into individual verrines or bowls.
Refrigerate for at least two hours before serving.
