Cold “Hot Chocolate” Trifle Recipe

  • 3 egg whites, at room temperature
  • 1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar, divided
  • 2 1/2 ounces unsweetened chocolate
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 6 store-bought chocolate mini meringue cookies, crushed
  • 4 tablespoons mini marshmallows
  1. In a bowl, beat egg whites and a pinch of salt until soft peaks form. Add 1/4 cup sugar; beat until stiff peaks of meringue form. In a microwave-safe bowl, nuke chocolate in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until melted; let cool slightly. Gently fold chocolate into meringue until just combined. Divide mousse evenly among four 5-ounces glasses. Rinse bowl; add cream and remaining 1 tablespoon sugar; beat until soft peaks form. Top mousse with whipped cream, crushed cookies and marshmallows. Refrigerate at least 2 hours or up to 24.
