Step 1

With a wooden spoon, stir the chocolate until melted.
4. Pour the melted chocolate into the blender. Puree the mixture until smooth. Adjust sugar as desired.
5. Transfer the mousse into a container or 1/2-cup individual serving dishes. Cover tightly with plastic wrap. Chill for 2 hours before serving.
