- Make sure your egg whites are at room temperature for maximum volume when whipping. Cold egg whites will not whip as well.
- Fold the egg whites into the chocolate mixture gently to avoid deflating the mousse. Use a spatula and make gentle, folding motions.
- Chill the mousse thoroughly before serving. This allows the flavors to meld and the mousse to set properly. The longer it chills, the richer the flavor will be!
