CHOCOLATE MOUSSE

Steps:

• Place the butter in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Break the chocolate into small pieces directly into the bowl. Microwave it in 20-second intervals, stirring between each bout of heat, until the chocolate is about 75% melted. Stir, allowing the residual heat in the bowl to melt the chocolate completely. (Alternatively, place the chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl and place over a saucepan containing about 1 inch of barely simmering water. Stir with a wooden spoon until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth.) Let the mixture cool for a few minutes, then whisk in the egg yolks one at a time, mixing until smooth after each addition. Set aside.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer or electric hand mixer, beat the egg whites on medium-high speed until foamy. Add the cream of tartar and beat until soft peaks form (the peaks should be just starting to hold, and will melt back into themselves after a second). Gradually beat in ¼ cup of the sugar and continue beating until stiff peaks form (the peaks will stand straight up when the beaters are lifted from the mixture). Using a large rubber spatula, fold the egg white mixture into the chocolate mixture until uniform. Set aside.
• In another bowl, beat the heavy cream on medium-high speed until it begins to thicken up. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar and the vanilla and continue beating until the cream holds medium peaks (when you lift the beaters or whisk out of the bowl, the peaks will slightly droop down, but they won't lose their shape entirely). Fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture. Be sure it is fully incorporated but don't mix any more than necessary. Divide the mousse between 6 individual glasses, cover, and chill until set, at least 2 hours.
• Up to a few hours before serving, whip the cream until it begins to thicken up. Add the sugar and whip to medium peaks. Dollop the whipped cream over the mousse and top with chocolate shavings.
• Make-Ahead Instructions: Mousse can be made up to 1 day ahead of time. Cover with plastic wrap and keep chilled in the refrigerator. Add whipped cream topping and chocolate shavings up to a few hours before serving.
• Note: Chocolate mousse is made with raw eggs. If that is a concern, try to find pasteurized eggs. Pasteurized eggs have been briefly exposed to heat to destroy any potential bacteria. Whole Foods usually carries them but call your local store to be sure before making a special trip. (Note: eating raw eggs is not advisable for pregnant women, babies, the elderly, or anyone with a compromised immune system.)

ONE-MINUTE CHOCOLATE MOUSSE

Steps:

• 1. Add the ingredients to a large bowl. Hot fudge topping should come straight from the jar; do not heat first.
• 2. With a hand mixer beat ingredients, on medium speed, for 30 seconds until well combined. Scrape down the sides with a spatula.
• 3. Beat on high for 15 to 20 seconds more or until stiff peaks form.
• 4. Lightly fold the mousse to check the consistency.
• 5. If the consistency is fine, it's ready to serve. If a thicker consistency is preferred, beat the mousse on high for about 10 to 15 seconds more. Make sure to not over beat or the mousse will break down.
• 6. Spoon the chocolate mousse into dessert glasses.
• 7. Top with whipped cream, chocolate syrup, a maraschino cherry and/or a Pirouline wafer.

PUMPKIN MOUSSE RECIPE

Steps:

• Beat cream cheese: Using a large bowl and a hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat the cream cheese on medium speed until very smooth and creamy, about 3 minutes. Scrape down the sides and the bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed.
• Add pumpkin + sugars: Add the pumpkin puree, brown sugar and confectioner's sugar to the bowl. Beat on medium-high speed until well combined, about 3 minutes.
• Add flavorings: Add the vanilla, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon and salt to the bowl. Beat on medium-high until creamy and smooth; making sure no lumps of cream cheese remain - if so, continue beating!
• Fold in whipped cream: Add 2 cups of the whipped topping to the bowl. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold the whipped topping into the pumpkin mixture until well combined. Make sure you fold gently so you don't deflate the whipped topping! Gently fold until the topping in completely combined and no streaks of cream remain.
• Serve or Store: Either transfer the mousse to a piping bag or gently scoop the mousse into serving cups, glasses or a trifle dish. Top with remaining whipped topping and whatever toppings you love! Serve immediately and enjoy! Storage: Alternately, you can cover the mixing bowl tightly with plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator for several days.
