Simply Chocolate Mousse


My friend S and her husband, A, gave me these two, huge packets of beautiful, pure, dark, Italian 72% chocolate. A works for a large, industrial food company and they supply different kinds of ingredients in bulk to restaurants, industrial bakers, small and big food businesses, etc....In short, the experts. I'm no expert, but I do know that when you have chocolate this pure and premium, you've got to use it in a recipe where the chocolate is the star. If it's masked, overpowered and drowned by other ingredients, that would simply be sacrilegious!

One bag of dark chocolate bits, perfect for topping the mousse, and another bag of big, dark chocolate chips.
So I decided to make a simple, chocolate mousse. Nothing complicated, just to let that chocolate flavour shine through.
