Ingredients

The following ingredients have 9 Servings
  • 1 batch of your favorite brownie batter (I’ve made it no secret that mine is the Ghirardelli Double Chocolate boxed mix)
  • 6 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 3 ounces unsweetened chocolate, melted and cooled
  • 1/2 cup eggs (for me that was about 1 1/2 eggs)
  • whipped cream
  • chocolate shavings

Instruction

  • Prepare the brownie batter. Pour the batter into tart pans, making just a thin layer (about 1 inch) of batter. Bake for about 10-15 minutes, depending on how gooey you want the crust. When completely cool, if they puffed up a little bit you can press them down with your hands to make more room for the filling.
  • Cream the butter and sugar until fluffy. Add the melted and cooled chocolate. The mixture will look kind of grainy – that’s ok.
  • With your mixer on low, incorporate the eggs. As soon as they’re just incorporated, start gradually turning your mixer to a faster setting, scraping the sides as you go. Beating it faster will fluff the whole thing up and it will become a wonderful, fluffy chocolate mousse.
  • Pour the mousse over the brownies and refrigerate for at least 4 hours. When ready to serve, top with whipped cream and chocolate shavings.
