%!editor_image name="mousse" /!%


Ingredients

1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup water
11/3 cup heavy cream, divided
7 ounces milk chocolate, finely chopped
1 tablespoons vegetable oil


Preparation

1. Place sugar and water in saucepan and cook over medium heat to an amber colored caramel. Remove from heat and whisk in 1/3 cup heavy cream. Return to low heat and cook, stirring, until any hardened bits of caramel are dissolved. Immediately pour over chopped chocolate. Allow to sit for 1 minute and whisk until chocolate is completely melted and mixture is fully emulsified. Add vegetable oil and whisk until fully combined and creamy. Allow to cool for five minutes or until tepid.

2. Whip remaining cup heavy cream to soft peaks and keep chilled until chocolate mixture has cooled down. Fold 1/3 of whipped cream into chocolate mixture to lighten it. Gently fold in remaining whipped cream being careful not to over -fold.  Spoon or pipe mousse into 4 martini glasses. Cover and refrigerate for 1-2 hours to set.

A 2005 study based at Tufts University in Medford, MA found that dark chocolate actually helps to lower blood pressure. In a controlled experiment comparing 20 different people, researchers found that dark chocolate was a significant factor in lowering blood pressure, while white chocolate was not. The key ingredient thought to cause this phenomenon is flavonoids.

Flavonoids, also found in wine are types of pigments that are water-soluble and created by plants of many varieties. There are thousands of different flavanoids. Plants use flavonoids in the process of photosynthesis.

How the human body actually uses and/or processes flavonoids is still not determined but they have been linked to good health in many areas - particularly blood circulation.

If you are a science buff, then you'll be interested to know that flavonoids are polyphenolic compounds containing 15 carbon atoms, two benzene rings joined by a linear three carbon chain. If you're just an average, everyday person with a sweet tooth, then you'll be interested to know that good things are contained in a single bite of dark chocolate. So please, put down the chemistry book and enjoy some today!
