Chocolate mousse is a rich and creamy dessert made primarily from chocolate, eggs, and cream. It is known for its light and airy texture, which is achieved by folding whipped cream or beaten egg whites into a chocolate mixture. This process creates a fluffy consistency that melts in your mouth. Typically served chilled, chocolate mousse can be enjoyed on its own or garnished with toppings like whipped cream, berries, or chocolate shavings. It is a popular choice for special occasions and is often found in restaurants and dessert menus around the world.
