- 200 grams cold unsalted butter

- 2 large egg yolks
- 1 pinch salt (2 grams)
Chocolate Mousse Filling
- 200 grams semi-sweet dark chocolate
- 100 ml heavy whipping cream
- 300 ml heavy whipping cream
Instructions
Short Crust Pastry Dough
- Sift the all-purpose flour in the a mixer, food processor or a pastry board. Add cocoa and cold butter cut into pieces.
- Then chop it all with a sharp knife, mixing the butter with the flour. If using mixer of food processor just mix all the ingredients together.
- In the next step, add salt, powdered sugar and egg yolks chopping for a moment.
- Then knead the dough, wrap it in foil and place it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
- After this time, roll out the dough to a thickness of about 5-7 mm, cut out circles and place the dough into cupcake molds.
- When all the molds are filled with dough, place them on a baking tray and put them in the preheated oven to 200 degrees Celsius or 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Bake chocolate cupcakes for about 15-20 minutes and after baking, immediately remove from the oven and cool.
Chocolate Mousse Filling
- Cut chocolate into small pieces.
- Place the 100 ml of heavy whipping cream into a small pot and add the cut up chocolate. Place over low heat.
- By using a whisk, continue to mix the chocolate in the whipping cream until a uniform consistency forms. Do not boil the whipping cream. The chocolate will melt quickly in the warm whipping cream. Once all melted, set aside to cool.
- In to a larger bowl place 300 ml of the heavy whipping cream and mix until peaks start to form. Then slowly add the cooled chocolate into the cream an continue mixing until all chocolate mixture is incorporated into the whipping cream.
