Chocolate Mousse

Start by beating 4 egg yolks and ¾ cup sugar together with an electric whisk. Then place the mixing bowl over a pot of simmering water, and continue to whisk it for another 3 to 4 minutes, or until it becomes foamy. Remove the bowl from the pot, whisk for 3 to 4 minutes on the counter, then add in 6 ounces of melted dark chocolate. Beat again, and then slowly fold in 4 firmly whisked egg whites. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
