Ingredients

• 1 cup dark chocolate, chopped

• 1/4 cup granulated sugar

• 3 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Pinch of salt

Instructions

1. Gently melt the dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl over simmering water. Let it cool slightly.
2. Puree the fresh raspberries and 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar in a blender. Strain the mixture to remove the seeds.

4. Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens. Remove from heat and stir in the melted chocolate.
5. Add the raspberry puree, vanilla extract, and salt to the chocolate mixture. Mix until well combined.
6. In another bowl, whip the remaining heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the chocolate-raspberry mixture.
7. Spoon the mousse into individual serving glasses. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until set.
8. Garnish with additional raspberries before serving. Enjoy the harmonious blend of flavors and the smooth, airy texture of the mousse.
