Chocolate Mousse(Serves 15) - cooking recipe

Ingredients

8 eggs
2 (6 oz.) pkg. chocolate chips
10 Tbsp. butter (do not use margarine)
1 pt. real whipping cream

Preparation

Warm eggs to room temperature (at least 1 hour).
Separate eggs.
Melt chocolate and butter in double boiler, stirring constantly, as it has a tendency to become grainy or lumpy. Remove from heat and add egg yolks, one at a time.
Mix until just smooth and let sit.
Beat whites until very stiff.
Fold into chocolate mixture using wire whisk, until very foamy and fluffy. Put this into the bowl you wish to serve it in and chill.
Make this at least one day ahead, preferably 2 days.
