This is so great, I had to make a chilled desert for a school project with 4 variations so i used different types of chocolate with it. white chocolate works wonders!

This is a superb recipe, easy to make and delicious. I used cognac and stong coffee in place of the water and used Valrhona bittersweet chocolate. It was perfect both ways. A must have recipe!!!!!!!!!!

This recipe was wonderful!!! I was skeptical at first due to some of the low reviews about texture but I like following easy recipes so I couldn't resist. I will say that I had to exercise some patience but it was worth it. The recipe received rave reviews. I used all the ingredients listed exactly but adjusted the methods used. For those who are worried about the water and chips, I melted them over low heat longer than I expected until the texture was smooth (honestly, I think it took at least 15 minutes but well worth the wait). For the cream, I put a metal mixing bowl and beaters in the freezer to make them cold before I whipped the cream. Finally, I folded in the chocolate mixture after letting it cool (barely warm to the touch) using a scraper vice low beater speed. The result was a very fluffy dessert. Thank you Sandra.

This was very simple to make and it came out grand. I melted the chips for 30 seconds in the microwave instead of doing it on the stove. The flavor is consistant with chocolate mousse I have had before.

I made this for a Birthday party & everyone loved it. I served the mousse in wine glasses with whip cream on top. They looked pretty fancy.

I must admit I was skecptical at 1st I always though that chocolate mixed with water will cause it to cease. I read all the reviews and nobody mentioned so i proceded and "boy am i glad " I did. I followed the recipe exactly except I used 3/4 lind milk chocolate and 1/4 dark lint chocolate which resulted in a rich lovely mousse. I used the mousse the fill a chocolate cake. This will be my only recipe from now on.

So good. Easy to make and good enough to serve to guests. I used regular semi-sweet chocolate chips and found it a little rich by the time we got to the bottom of the glass. I think next time I'll use good quality chocolate which will probably help with the richness. That and a smaller glass! Loved it. Thanks

Don't know if it was the sugar I use (just regular sugar, nothing strange) but the feel of the mousse was a bit "gritty". So-the next time I made this recipe I added the sugar to the (still warm) chocolate. That made the sugar melt and the mousse turned velvety. The recipe is a keeper but I'll continue using my modification.

I made this twice. The first time just like the recipe but the texture didn't come out smooth and it was watery so I dumped it and tried again with no water. This was better but still not a real smooth texture. I don't know what I did wrong. My kids didn't like it and I didn't love it. Sorry. Could have been me.
