- Break the chocolate into pieces, add the butter, and melt it in a double boiler. Alternatively, melt it in the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring in between.
- In a mixer, beat the egg yolks with sugar until it becomes a very creamy and whitish mixture.
- Add the melted chocolate to the egg yolk mixture and beat to combine.
- In another bowl, beat the egg whites until they form stiff peaks, adding a few grains of salt when they start to foam.
- Gently fold the egg whites into the chocolate mixture in three portions, using circular motions from top to bottom (avoid vigorous mixing).
- Transfer the mousse to a large bowl or individual bowls and refrigerate for several hours.
