Thank you, looking for a dessert to take to an American Supper next month.

Presumably you let the chocolate mixture cool so that the yolks don't cook when stirred in?

[Merrelyn]

Yum, I love chocolate mousse but haven't made it in ages :)

So you don’t bake it once the raw egg whites are blended in? It sounds yummy but I’m nervous after getting sick from raw eggs in cookie dough once.

Looks fabulous and sounds great!

No baking so yes it could be a problem if you have a reaction to raw eggs.

@vignouse

It will cool a bit when the butter is added but it is not cooled intentionally and have never had cooked eggs.

[Pat Knowles]

Sounds & looks delicious Hazel...I did wonder if you cooked it too, didn’t think so but wasn’t sure.
