White chocolate mousse

Ingredients:

• 200 g white chocolate, broken into very small pieces
• 12 fresh blackberries for garnish
• 2 egg yolks
• 2 tablespoons of sugar
• 1/4 cup heavy cream plus 1 more cup
• Mint leaves for garnish, optional

Preparation:

1. Place chopped chocolate in a large glass bowl and set aside.
   
   Place the egg yolks and sugar in a small bowl and whisk until the yolks turn pale.
   
   In a saucepan, bring 1/4 cup of cream to a gentle simmer over low heat. Slowly pour the cream into the yolk and sugar mixture. Pour the mixture back into the saucepan and stir with a wooden spoon until thickened.
2. Strain the hot mixture through a fine sieve into the bowl with the chocolate. Stir until smooth.
   
   In another bowl, beat the remaining 1 cup of heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Fold half of the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture to lighten it. Then fold in the remaining heavy cream.
   
   Spoon the chocolate mousse into individual serving bowls and refrigerate for about 1 hour until completely set.
   
   Garnish each serving with 3 blackberries and mint leaves (optional).
