πŸ₯£ Ingredients

  • 200g dark chocolate (or milk chocolate, to taste)
  • 3 ripe bananas
  • 3 eggs
  • 30g sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch salt
  • Whipped cream (for decoration, optional)
  • Cocoa powder (for dusting, optional)

πŸ‘¨β€πŸ³ Instructions

1️⃣ Prepare the Chocolate:

  • Melt the Chocolate: Break the chocolate into pieces and melt it using a double boiler or in the microwave. If using the microwave, heat in 30-second intervals, stirring each time until completely melted. Let it cool slightly.

2️⃣ Prepare the Bananas:

  • Mash the Bananas: In a bowl, mash the bananas with a fork until smooth. Add the vanilla extract and mix well.

3️⃣ Beat the Egg Whites:

  • Whip the Whites: In another bowl, separate the egg whites from the yolks. Add a pinch of salt to the whites and beat them until stiff peaks form. This will give your mousse a light, airy texture.

4️⃣ Mix Ingredients:

  • Combine Yolks and Sugar: In a bowl with the egg yolks, add the sugar and beat until the mixture is smooth and slightly frothy. Then add the melted chocolate and mix well.
  • Add Bananas: Stir the banana puree into the chocolate mixture until smooth.

5️⃣ Fold in the Egg Whites:

  • Gently Fold: Carefully fold the egg whites into the chocolate-banana mixture, using a spatula and making upward motions to keep the air in the mix and achieve a light mousse texture.

6️⃣ Refrigerate:

  • Chill: Pour the mousse into ramekins or serving dishes and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until set.

7️⃣ Serve:

  • Decorate and Serve: Before serving, top with a dollop of whipped cream and a dusting of cocoa powder for an elegant touch.

🍫 Bon appétit!
