Happy to have finally found a recipe that doesn't call for heavy whipping cream, but uses cheaper, more common ingredients

Delicious and light. I give it 4 stars because I was leery about the chocolate melting properly and mixing with the egg yolks, and I would prefer the eggs to be cooked as much as possible. I prepared everything in a double boiler, then folded in the whipped egg whites (with a little cream of tartar). I made a tart using a walnut crust...really delicious and the mousse came out very light. Fantastic as I was looking for one without cream, and I will definitely make this one again.

This was so easy, that I was almost nervous about it, but it turned out great. I used a double boiler for the chocolate and then whisked in the boiling water. It came out incredibly rich and delicious.

This is a very easy way to get great results. My wife served the mouse in martini glasses with a piece of dark chocolate that she melted into a stick.

I am not completely new to cooking, but this is my first attempt at mousse. I'm assuming I've done something wrong, or the area I live in (very humid island) has affected this recipe. Even with close attention to the eggs, and folding in gently, this turned into a soup at the bottom and a slimy, bubbly mixture on top. I can't say I have the drive to try this again.

Fabulous. My chocolate mixture was a little too warm so the bottom of the glass had more of a pudding mixture and the tops were fluffy. I added some hazelnut extract to the egg whites. Really good I will repeat often!

I really like this recipe! I added some dark chocolate shavings to the mousse, then served it with some whipped cream and more chocolate shavings. So simple and sooooo good!

I made this for a class Christmas party and everyone loved it! I couldn't quite get the eggs to whip right but once I'd chilled it the mousse was fluffy.

Good but not great. Had a hard time with these instructions getting the choclate to melt, and there's no way the egg whites were getting folded in with the chocolate still in the blender. Getting the chocolate out of hte blender proved to be its own challenge. On the bright side, it set up in less than an hour in the fridge. It was improved by whipped cream garnish.

I have made something similar to this recipe in the past-In the other recipe, I used milk rather than water and cooked the entire egg, rather than using the egg whites. My family loved the taste, but it was so rich, they couldnt finish a small serving. I put the chocolate chips in a glass bowl and microwaved it for 45 seconds, then mixed in the boiling water. I used an immersion blender to mix in the water and the egg yolks one at a time. It worked great and not too much mess to clean up. I wasnt sure how the hot chocolate mixture would do with the egg whites, but they werent too bad to encorporate(folded them in with a large spatula) I put spoonfuls into glass ramakins and they set up beautifully. My family loved the taste and texture-it was rich, but not cloying. They finished the entire cup>(I got about 5 servings) Great recipe-very easy.

This was so GOOD. I had low expectations from this recipe. I wanted something very creamy and light and I doubted that eggs could give me what I wanted, but it was WONDERFUL!!!!!!!! I love this recipe! It is very chocolaty so if you are not a big fan of chocolate, you might not like it. I used dark chocolate when I made this mousse, and we definatly need milk with it. Very good!

It was soooo easy!! What happened to mine was I think I didn't melt the chocolate completely, so there's like super tiny chunks in the mousse which actually added specialty to it! weird but special* =P

Very delicious! Great chocolate flavor, and I loved the texture. My family loved it and my sister was oohing and aahing the whole time she was eating it! I just made it plain, but it would be even better with some whipped cream to top it off. I'm saving this recipe, and I'll definitely make it again.
