First, melt the dark chocolate.
You can do this by either using a double boiler or microwaving it in short intervals, stirring in between until smooth and melted.
Next, separate the egg yolks from the whites.
In a bowl, whisk the egg yolks with sugar until they become pale and creamy.
Then, gradually pour in the melted chocolate, mixing until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites until they form stiff peaks.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture, followed by the egg whites.
Be careful not to overmix, as you want to maintain the light and airy texture.
Once everything is well incorporated, divide the mixture into serving glasses or bowls.
Chill in the refrigerator for at least two hours, or until set.
When you're ready to serve, garnish your Chocolate Mousse with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of cocoa powder.
