Directions

Prepare the Chocolate Mousse

  1. Place chocolate, oil, coffee and wine in a small pot and cook until a smooth, creamy mixture forms. Cool slightly.

  2. In an electric mixer, beat yolks with half a cup of the sugar for five minutes. Lower the mixer speed and add chocolate mixture.

  3. In a separate bowl of an electric mixer, beat whites with remaining one-fourth cup sugar until stiff.

  4. Gently fold the chocolate-yolk mixture into the egg whites until fully combined.

  5. For the dairy version: Whip up the heavy cream and gently fold into the mousse.

  6. Pour mousse into pretty glass cups. Serve very cold.

Tips:

To decorate these mousse cups, melt three and a half ounces chocolate and spread over a chocolate transfer sheet or a sheet of baking paper. Freeze chocolate for 10 minutes and break into asymmetrical pieces. Decorate mousse cups with chocolate shards and mini macarons.

Notes:

Mousse can be made up to 24 hours in advance and refrigerated, or can be stored in the freezer for up two weeks.

Hi, I am not sure where they were bought- you would have to contact the photographer for Whisk. However, they do look like double insulated glass cups and I know Bed Bath & Beyond sells something similar.
