Semisweet Chocolate Mousse Tips Is it safe to eat raw eggs in chocolate mousse? No, we don’t recommend that you eat raw eggs. This chocolate mousse recipe cooks the egg yolk in the first step. When the mixture thickens, it means the egg is fully cooked.Why is my chocolate mousse not fluffy? If your mousse is not fluffy, it may be because your cream was not adequately whipped when you folded it into the chocolate mixture. Or if the mixture is too warm, it will deflate your whipped cream. To revive your chocolate mousse, try whisking it in a bowl with a large whip. Make big, exaggerated circles with the whip to work some air into the chocolate mousse. If that isn't enough to make your chocolate mousse fluffy, you can fold more whipped cream or whipped topping into it. For more tips, check out how to make mousse.What do you serve chocolate mousse in? I like to serve my chocolate mousse in clear glass dishes—bowls, sundae dishes, parfait cups or even wine glasses. Serving your mousse recipe in glass lets everyone admire the mousse’s rich color and attractive texture. These indulgent mousse dessert recipes will also look appealing in a glass dish.
