CBD-infused chocolate mousse

Preparation time : 4 hours

Number of people : 8

Dosage : approximately 40 mg CBD per person

Kitchen utensils

• 8 ramekins
• 1 whisk
• 2 medium-sized bowls
• 2 small bowls
• 1 small-mesh strainer
• 1 saucepan
• 1 spatula
• 1 measuring glass
• plastic film

Ingredients

• 250g pastry chocolate, finely chopped
• 5 eggs
• 70g sugar
• 5g salt
• 200g whipped cream
• 90 cL milk
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 teaspoon instant coffee powder
• 300mg CBD crystals

Instructions

1. Put the baking chocolate in a box. You'll be putting your hot ingredients in it, so make sure your bowl holds the heat. Place the colander over your bowl and set aside.
2. Separate egg whites and yolks into two separate bowls. Cover and reserve the whites for later.
3. Whisk egg yolks, sugar and salt in a new bowl until incorporated. Slowly add the milk and whipping cream. Whisk gently until you obtain a showery texture, without too many air bubbles in the mixture.
4. Place the mixture in the saucepan and heat over medium heat, stirring constantly with the spatula. The cream should thicken slowly after 8 to 12 minutes of constant stirring. Your cream is ready when your spatula sits upright in the pan.
5. Immediately pour the mixture into the strainer. This retains any lumps of milk that may have formed during cooking.
6. Add the CBD to the cream and chocolate, and stir until smooth.
7. Add the vanilla and coffee powder before separating into the ramekins. You can gently tap the side of the ramekin to remove any air bubbles that may have formed.
8. Leave your chocolate mousse to cool to room temperature, then cover with cling film and set aside for 4 hours.
9. Serve cold.
