You're creating an airy white chocolate mousse by whipping eggs and cream separately, then folding them together with melted chocolate—the key is being gentle when combining everything so you keep all that lovely airiness. After layering into glasses with fruit, you'll let it chill for a few hours, making this a perfect make-ahead dessert for special occasions.

Tip: making it in a stand mixer
If you've got a powerful kitchen helper like I do, crack both eggs into the bowl, add the sugar, fit the whisk attachment and let it run on full speed. In just a few minutes you'll have a firm, whipped foam. Not every mixer can pull this off, though.
