Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a 9x9 inch baking dish lined with parchment paper.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate and butter in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
  3. Whisk together the eggs and sugar until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
  4. Fold the melted chocolate mixture into the egg and sugar mixture carefully.
  5. Sift in the all-purpose flour and gently fold until just combined, avoiding overmixing.
  6. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared dish and bake for 25-30 minutes until a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  7. Let the brownies cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. Whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form, then gently fold in the melted chocolate.
  9. Spread the mousse evenly over the cooled brownies.
  10. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours until the mousse is set before serving.
