120g dark chocolate, chopped
120g milk chocolate, chopped
120g white chocolate, chopped
1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin
1/4 cup water
5 large egg yolks
1/4 cup sugar
1 cup heavy cream
Grease a 20cm diameter opening mold well with oil
Set aside
Place each chocolate in separate medium-sized bowls and reserve
In another small bowl, mix the gelatin with water and let it hydrate for 10 minutes
While that's happening, beat the egg yolks with sugar for 5 minutes until a clear and thick mixture forms
Heat milk in a saucepan over low heat until warm
Gradually add the egg yolk mixture to the milk, stirring constantly
Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over moderate heat, stirring continuously, for 3 minutes or until it thickens and covers the spoon but does not boil
Add the gelatin mixture and stir until dissolved
Next, place 1/3 of the whipped cream, still warm, over each of the chocolates
Mix each one separately with a separate spoon until smooth
If the mixture cools before the chocolate melts, return it to low heat in a water bath and stir until melted
Let the chocolates cool, stirring occasionally
Beat the heavy cream until stiff peaks form and divide it into equal portions over each chocolate
Mix each one separately again
To assemble: Pour the chocolate mousse mixture into the prepared mold, smooth the surface with a spatula
Place in the freezer for 15 minutes or until firm
Repeat the process with the milk chocolate and white chocolate mixtures
Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate
About 10-15 minutes before serving, run a knife around the mold to loosen the mousse and remove the mold
Serve chilled
