Ingredients: 3 egg yolks 6 squares (6oz) semisweet chocolate 1/3 cup water 1 cup heavy cream 3 tablespoons confectioner's sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Semisweet chocolate shavings for garnish
Directions: In a small bowl, lightly beat the egg yolks. In a saucepan, melt the chocolate with water, stirring until smooth. Add 3 tablespoons of chocolate mixture to the egg yolks, then pour mixture back into the pan with the remaining chocolate. Cook over low heat, stirring until thickened, about 1 minute. Transfer to a new bowl and let cool for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, mix the cream, sugar, and vanilla with a mixer on high speed until soft peaks form. Transfer 1/2 cup of mixture to a small bowl and refigerate. Fold the remaining mixture into the chocolate mixture. Spoon into 4 dessert cups. Refrigerate until firm (approx. 2 hours). Spoon refrigerated cream mixture onto mousse before serving and add chocolate shavings as garnish
