  • Whip the egg whites with sugar, gradually starting to add the sugar when some foam appears. Whip until firm peaks.
  • Add a little egg whites to the chocolate part, and mix carefully with a spatula.
  • Bake the sponge biscuit in two 14cm (5.51 inch) molds at 320F (160C) for 40 minutes.
  • Cut each sponge biscuit into 2 cake layers, and remove the top crust.

Blueberry mousse
