I am so glad Kadence to hear that it turned well for you. My favorite is the one with only chocolate flavor as well, but I wanted people to know that different flavors can be added. Stay in touch, more recipes are about to come :)

You just have to be careful on how you fold in the chocolate mixture into the whites so the whites don't deflate. And also it is important to let it chill preferably overnight, this is what also helps being so airy.

Thank you so much Rina for your comment.. I am really happy that you enjoyed the recipe... Hope I will be able to post soon a mousse recipe that doesn't use raw eggs

4- 6 hours should be just fine.. or even overnight.. hope you will try it out and let me know
