Comment préparer Nigella's Chocolate Cherry Mousse For Two

In a heavy-based saucepan, combine 4 ounces (113g) finely chopped dark chocolate, 1 tablespoon cherry brandy or kirsch, 1 tablespoon (14g) unsalted butter, and 1 tablespoon (12g) light corn syrup.
Add 2 tablespoons granulated sugar if using cherry brandy, or 3 tablespoons granulated sugar if using kirsch.
Melt over very low heat, stirring gently until smooth. Scrape the mixture into a heatproof bowl and allow to cool slightly.
Separate 2 large eggs. In a clean, grease-free bowl, whisk the egg whites until stiff, glossy peaks form.
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks into the cooled chocolate mixture until well combined. Gently fold in a spoonful of the whipped egg whites to lighten the mixture.
Carefully fold the remaining egg whites into the chocolate mixture in two additions, being careful not to deflate the mixture. Use a spatula and gentle folding motions.
Spoon the mousse into two wine glasses or small serving dishes.
Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to 6 hours, to allow the mousse to set.
Garnish with fresh cherries or chocolate shavings before serving (optional). Yields 2 servings.
