Instructions

  1. Step 1: Chop 6 oz dark chocolate and melt with 2 tbsp unsalted butter in a heatproof bowl over simmering water, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  2. Step 2: Whisk 3 large egg yolks with 1/4 cup granulated sugar until pale and thick. Fold melted chocolate mixture gently into the yolks.
  3. Step 3: In a separate clean bowl, whisk 3 large egg whites until stiff peaks form. Carefully fold the egg whites into the chocolate mixture, preserving the volume.
  4. Step 4: Whip 1 cup heavy cream to soft peaks and fold into the chocolate mixture until smooth and airy.
  5. Step 5: Spoon mousse into a rabbit-shaped silicone mold or any rabbit-shaped container, smoothing the top, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours until set.
  6. Step 6: Meanwhile, blend 1 cup fresh raspberries with 1 tbsp lemon juice and 2 tbsp powdered sugar until smooth. Strain to remove seeds for a silky coulis.
  7. Step 7: To serve, unmold the mousse onto plates and drizzle with raspberry coulis for a fruity contrast to the rich chocolate.
