Actually pretty disappointed in this. It comes out like a standard, overly-caloric, Americanized version of a French chocolate mousse. I found it far too heavy. It is much better with egg whites rather than whipped cream.

Loved it!! Instead of Semi Sweet chips I used 12 oz of Nutella. Had some trouble with the gelatin part so I'll need to make this a few more times to get that part down, but the taste is delish!!

Absolutely tasty and delicious. A truly delightful light dessert that is a compliment to any meal and chocolate lover. A great idea for Valentine's. Recipe makes 4 generous portions. Orange liquor would be a great addition, though it is wonderful just by itself.

Awesome recipe. The mousse tasted great. Unfortunately, I was a bit of a beginner with this recipe. I was thinking (for a reason unknown to myself that the recipe called for espresso grounds not brewed espresso. I will definitely try again, but I can say the mousse is very good. Not too sweet or thick.

This was good and easy to make, except that it was a bit too sweet for my husband and me. What worked really well, though, was adding orange zest to the chocolate mixture after it had cooled. That added a new flavor dimension.

Im 14 years old and love cooking. I've watched good eats and tryed many of AB's recipes, and this is absolutely AMAZING. It is simple to make and is absolutely delicious, but I like my mousse thick so i beat the cream until stiff peaks other than that, Alton, hats off to you!

Excellent mousse! Blooming the gelatin in whipping creamy is a bit trucky, but a stick blender helps.

EXCELLENT! I sometimes add 1/2 tsp of expresso powder. Love that there are no raw eggs since I am feeding children.

I've got to tell you, I LOVE ANY MOUSSE DESSERTS. I've been living in the US for 9 years or so now, and any of the mousse recipes I had found in those years were more like puddings, which were made with eggs, no gelatin. However, this recipe was very close to what I used to make in Japan, and the result was very close too. I put some orange zest and orange liquor as well as rum, also put some cinnamon. It was very good. Coffee absolutely gives a deep flavor. I think I will try making it with Bailey's Irish Cream next time.
