Directions
1.
Combine Cocoa and Sugar
Place the cocoa powder or chocolate mix and 60 g sugar into a saucepan.
Mix them together before adding the liquid.
Gradually pour in the milk while stirring.
Mix thoroughly until the cocoa and sugar are evenly combined and there are no obvious lumps.
This creates the chocolate base for the homemade chocolate mousse.

2.
Add the Marshmallows
Add 150 g marshmallows, reserving a few pieces for the final garnish.
Stir them through the chocolate mixture.
Place the saucepan over low heat.
Heat slowly while stirring until the marshmallows melt completely and the mixture becomes smooth.
Avoid using very high heat because the chocolate mixture can catch on the bottom of the pan.
For a stronger chocolate flavour, you can add a little milk chocolate or dark chocolate at this stage.

3.
Cool the Chocolate Mixture
Remove the saucepan from the heat.
Transfer the mixture to a clean container and allow it to cool.
You can refrigerate it or place the container inside a larger bowl filled with ice water to speed up the cooling process.
The mixture should be cool before adding the egg whites.

4.
Whip the Egg Whites
Place 2 medium pasteurized egg whites in a clean mixing bowl.
Whisk until they begin to increase in volume. The original video adds some sugar while whipping, but does not specify the quantity.
Continue whisking until medium to stiff peaks form.
The egg whites should hold their shape and provide the airy texture needed for this easy chocolate mousse recipe.

5.
Lighten the Chocolate Mixture
Add a small portion of the whipped egg whites to the cooled chocolate-marshmallow mixture.
Fold gently until incorporated.
This first addition loosens the chocolate mixture and makes it easier to combine with the remaining egg whites.
Pour the lightened chocolate mixture into the remaining whipped egg whites.
Fold very gently using a spatula.
Avoid vigorous stirring because retaining the air in the egg whites is what gives the chocolate mousse recipe its light texture.

6.
Portion the Mousse
Spoon or pour the mousse into individual serving glasses or bowls.
Work gently so the mixture stays light and aerated.
Top each serving with a few marshmallow pieces.
Serve immediately for a softer mousse or refrigerate until chilled and set.
This simple homemade chocolate mousse makes an easy choice for dessert recipes and quick and easy recipes at home.
