Indulge in a guilt-free chocolate delight: our dairy-free mousse swaps butter and cream for OLYFO’s 2500 Years of Tradition Gold Organic EVOO, delivering silky richness laced with potent polyphenols for a heart-smart, antioxidant boost.
Ingredients (Serves 4–6)
Preparation
1️⃣ Melt the Chocolate
Break the dark chocolate into pieces and melt gently over a double boiler (or microwave in 20-second intervals). Stir until smooth.
2️⃣ Emulsify with EVOO
Remove from heat and slowly whisk in the EVOO. The olive oil creates a glossy, silky texture while enhancing flavor complexity. Let the mixture cool slightly.
3️⃣ Prepare the Egg Base
Whisk egg yolks with honey (or maple syrup), vanilla, and sea salt until pale and slightly thickened. Fold this into the chocolate-EVOO mixture until fully combined.
4️⃣ Whip the Egg Whites
In a clean bowl, beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Gently fold them into the chocolate mixture in three stages to maintain lightness and air.
5️⃣ Chill & Set
Spoon into serving glasses and refrigerate for at least 2 hours until set.
Serving Suggestion
Drizzle a few drops of EVOO on top before serving and finish with cocoa powder, crushed pistachios, or fresh berries.
