Another favorite recipe using Bailey's Irish Cream. Chocolate Mousse is great, but adding a little Bailey's makes it decadent! I've had this recipe for years and can't remember where my friend got it, but I'm glad she shared.

SERVES 8 -10 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Sugar syrup

Directions

  1. 1
    Melt chocolate, Irish cream and espresso over low heat.
  2. 2
    In separate pan, simmer sugar and water until temperature on a candy thermometer reaches 224 to 230°F., soft ball stage. (Remove from heat at 224°F; mixture will begin to caramelize at 232°F.).
  3. 3
    Whip egg whites until stiff and glossy. Add sugar syrup to whites and continue to whip about 8 minutes until eggs have increased in volume and mixture has cooled; fold into chocolate mixture.
  4. 4
    Whip heavy cream and sugar until stiff peaks form. Mix with chocolate mixture/eggs/sugar syrup mixture.
  5. 5
    Pour mousse into molds or serving dish. Allow to set in fridge. Garnish with chocolate shavings and fresh seasonal berries.

    Get a grip JillyBean1026! It's a great recipe. There's only a few ingredients in a chocolate mousse, so I'm sure there's many similarities. Don't ever post a recipe for a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.. you'll sure get someone like yourself saying you didn't give credit to the original person! I wouldn't change a thing about this recipe. My guests loved it! I agree it's rich, but worth the calories! It was a great ending to my Irish-based meal!

    This is very rich. I could only eat a very small serving, but it was delicious. The instructions were easy to follow, except they don't say what to do with the first 1/2 cup cream (common sense said to put it in with the chocolate). The only change I made was to use chocolate mint flavored Bailey's which was yummy and I'm sure it'll be great with original Bailey's as well. Thanks for sharing such a treat.

    DELICIOUS!! Served this to my mom and sisters and they were in heaven!! Also I agree thatJillybean1026 was out of line, you actually did say you got this recipe from a friend, and that you also have had it for years and cant remember where your friend got it. That comment was very rude and uncalled for.
