THE BEST CHOCOLATE MOUSSE
The best chocolate mousse must be perfect. It should taste rich, indulgent and not too sweet, with a texture that is both light-and-airy and silky-and-smooth. After many attempts we nailed it and made a dessert that not only exceeded our standards, it's also quite easy to pull off. Close your eyes and take a bite -- you'll be transported to a 4-star French restaurant.

Steps:
- Whip 1 cup of the heavy cream to soft peaks in a medium bowl (see Cook's Note). Set aside.
- Add the egg, egg yolks, sugar, espresso powder, vanilla extract, salt and 1 tablespoon water to a medium heatproof bowl and whisk to combine. Set the bowl over a medium saucepan of gently simmering water (do not allow the bowl to touch the water). Whisk constantly until the mixture is pale, hot to the touch and has almost doubled in volume, about 4 to 6 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl occasionally with a rubber spatula, if necessary. Remove from the heat and continue whisking until cooled, about 2 minutes.
- Put the chopped chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl and set over the saucepan of gently simmering water (do not allow the bowl to touch the water). Stir occasionally with a rubber spatula until the chocolate is melted and smooth. Remove from the heat and gently stir for about 3 minutes to cool slightly.
- Whisk the egg mixture into the melted chocolate in 3 additions until combined. (The mixture may get very thick.) Using a rubber spatula, gently fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture in 3 additions until it is fully incorporated. It is important that the chocolate mixture is not warm to ensure that it combines smoothly with the whipped cream without seizing up.
- Divide the chocolate mousse among four 4-ounce ramekins and chill until firm, about 1 hour.
- Whip the remaining 3/4 cup cold heavy cream to stiff peaks. Top each chocolate mousse with whipped cream and serve. (For a softer texture, allow the ramekins to sit at room temperature while you whip the cream.)
NO-BAKE CHOCOLATE MOUSSE BARS
Ethereal and ready to melt in your mouth, chocolate mousse bars are easy to make and even easier to eat. With so few ingredients, it's important to use a chocolate you would be perfectly happy to snack out of hand. The instant espresso powder is optional but adds depth to this simple dessert. To cut beautiful, neat slices, use a long sharp knife warmed in hot water and wiped clean before each cut.

Steps:
- Make the crust: Line a 9-inch-by-13-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on 2 sides. In a food processor, or in a resealable plastic bag, crush the graham crackers until you have fine crumbs (but stop before you have dust). You should have about 2 1/4 cups. Transfer the crumbs to a medium bowl. Add the butter, sugar and salt and stir until evenly moistened. Tip the crumbs into the prepared pan and press them down into an even layer on the bottom. Transfer to the freezer while you prepare the filling.
- Make the filling: Set the chocolate in a medium bowl. In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup cream, espresso powder and salt until hot but not boiling. Pour the hot cream mixture over the chocolate and let it stand for 2 minutes. Add the vanilla and whisk until smooth. Set aside to cool completely.
- In a large bowl or in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whip the remaining 2 cups heavy cream until you have stiff peaks. Add the chocolate mixture and gently fold to combine. Pour the mixture over the prepared crust, and spread it out into an even layer. Cover with plastic wrap and chill until firm, at least 2 hours. To serve, cut the two edges without parchment free with a sharp knife then use the parchment overhang to transfer the bar to a cutting board. Cut into squares and serve with a dollop of whipped cream, if desired.

CHOCOLATE MOUSSE S'MORES BARS
I love a s'more. It's classic, it's easy and during summer it's the ultimate dessert. And while the s'more is possibly the easiest dessert there is, it can become a bit of a production to get all the kids (or adults) sticks for marshmallows and get a fire going, so instead I turn to this make-ahead option that has all the flavors we love but can be made in advance so everyone can enjoy s'more time. The base is a graham cracker and rice cereal bar that is topped with a rich chocolate mousse. Marshmallows are added and bruléed for the classic toasted flavor.

Steps:
- Line an 8-inch-square baking pan with parchment paper, letting the paper hang over two sides of the pan to act as handles. Spray the parchment with non-stick spray.
- Place 18 marshmallows (about 4 ounces or 2 cups) in a medium bowl and set aside. Place the remaining 8 ounces of marshmallows (about 4 cups) in a large microwave-safe bowl along with the butter. Microwave on high until the marshmallows and butter are completely melted, about 1 minute, stirring halfway through. Stir to combine. Add the graham crackers and rice cereal and quickly stir them into the melted marshmallows. Immediately scrape the mixture into the prepared pan. Spray the bottom of a measuring cup with nonstick spray and use it to press the mixture into an even layer in the pan.
- Place 1 cup heavy cream to a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave the cream until it is just starting to steam, about 1 minute. Add the chocolate chips and cocoa powder. Shake the bowl lightly to make sure the chips are completely submerged in the heavy cream. Let stand about 5 minutes. Whisk the heavy cream and chocolate together until smooth. If any chocolate isn't melted you can microwave for 10-second increments until completely melted. It's important to only microwave 10 seconds at a time so the mixture never gets too hot. Once melted set aside to cool slightly.
- Place the remaining 1 cup of heavy cream in the bowl of an electric mixer or a medium bowl and whip with a mixer or whisk until stiff peaks form. Fold the whipped cream into the melted chocolate until you no longer see any streaks of white. Spoon the mousse over the graham cracker base and smooth the top to make an even layer.
- Cut the reserved 18 marshmallows that were set aside in half horizontally. Press 6 marshmallow halves in a row along the bottom border of the pan. Continue adding lines of marshmallows so that you have 6 rows of 6 marshmallows each covering the mousse. Cover with plastic wrap (preferably reusable) and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.
- When ready to serve, cut the bars into 6 long strips following the lines of the marshmallows. Then cut the strips in half so that each bar has 3 marshmallow halves on it. If desired, toast the marshmallows with a kitchen torch and serve. The bars can be refrigerated up to 3 days.
DECADENT CHOCOLATE MOUSSE BARS
I made these for a company bake-off and won first prize. This is time consuming, but is one of the most fabulous chocolate desserts I have ever made! It can be made with or without the ganache topping, but I strongly suggest that you make it totally awesome by adding the ganche! Don't eat too many -- they are rich!
