Meryl - Made the Premium Chocolate Mousse this weekend. Yowza! Big chocolate flavor. YUM!

I didn't check the cocoa percentage until just now...but it turns out, I made it with Valrhona's 56% (The premium version of the mousse calls for 62-70%.) Now I see why it's so rich. The premium version calls for an extra egg and 3 tablespoons more sugar.

Ah well...they're very good. Next time I'll use the right chocolate!

Hey Traca - glad it turned out well. I love that mousse!!!

I brought it into the office and one woman said, "Why would anyone

get addicted to heroin, when you can have that (chocolate mousse)?"

It has got all the ladies in my office swooning, for sure!
