Hello, young Padawan<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

You’re cold, and you want a snack or a crazy little dessert, but without breaking your macros (for those who calculate them, athletes will also appreciate the protein content, ed) or your waist size? Don’t move, don’t breathe, I have the 5-minute recipe that will make all the rainbows and northern lights on the planet burst out of your little heart, nothing less.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Simple, effective, and insightful, you just have to prepare it an hour before tasting it to give it time to set in the fridge.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I’ll give you the proportions for one serving for a snack, and you’ll just have to multiply this little madness by the number of guests in case of dessert.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

On your marks, get set, go!<\/p>\n

Chocolate mousse, \u00e0 la Chill<\/h6>\n

For one serving<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

1 fresh egg<\/p>\n

1 square of dark chocolate between 75 and 85% of cocoa<\/p>\n

1\/3 pinch of salt<\/p>\n

Optional: a pinch of cinnamon, and a few walnuts.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Recipe<\/h6>\n

Place the square of chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Melt it in 10-second increments. Twenty seconds should be enough, it should be mostly soft, and stirring with a spatula should finish melting it. Be careful; the chocolate should remain warm but not hot; do not overheat it. Set aside.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Break the egg and separate the white from the yolk. Beat the egg white until whipped; when it is whipped, add the micro pinch of salt before stopping beating.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Add the egg yolk to the melted chocolate, stirring with a spatula. You will obtain a slightly thick paste, don’t worry. Pour the equivalent of a tablespoon of whipped white into the chocolate-egg yolk mixture and stir with a spatula to loosen the chocolate paste a little and thus obtain a sort of cream.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Add the whipped white to the chocolate mixture in two batches, stirring delicately from bottom to top with a spatula. Pour the mixture into a clean ramekin and place it in the fridge for an hour, if possible, covered so that our mousse does not take on its odors. You can place a small plate on top; that will do the trick.<\/p>\n

Presentation<\/h6>\n

Take the chocolate mousse from the fridge two to three minutes before serving. Serve with a pinch of cinnamon and a few walnuts, which go very well with dark chocolate.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

For a dessert presentation, you can place a few walnut pieces on or next to the mousse ramekin, and remember to ask the guests if they all like cinnamon because this stuff is like coriander; there are fans and phobics, lol.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Serve with a good Christmas tea because it’s seasonal, and orange and cinnamon go wonderfully with chocolate, the word of a pastry chef.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

All that’s left for me to do is wish you an excellent tasting and a good weekend, and I’ll see you next Friday!<\/p>\n
