I FAILED… 😭 at making my French Grandpa’s Legendary Chocolate Mousse a few days ago.

But you know what!! It happens.

I am not a Michelin Star Chef, just a regular home cook with a lot on my mind and sometimes I make mistakes 🥲 and that is OKAY.

If you make a mistake in the kitchen, I hope that doesn’t demotivate you to keep cooking and trying!

Growth is non-linear. You live and you learn 😊

I linked my French Grandpa’s successful chocolate mousse recipe to this reel, go check out the recipe there!

  1. Literally me when i was making my families favorite christmas dishes (4 different cookies, funeral potatoes, brownies, and roasted veggies)
    My oven decided to give up on life and tried to burn my house down. I put the temp at 350, it was going at 500! Oh the annoyance! Could make NOTHING edible.

  2. Dear, I don't think it was just the heat from the chocolate. Usually when egg whites are whipped super stiff, they're so much harder to incorporate because they're clumpy rather than homogenous. If you're combining the two until all those clumps are gone, most of it will have deflated.

  3. girl if i were you I'd just turn the mixture into a cake batter instead… the mixture was already halfway from being a cake batter anyway. just need to add some flour, baking powder, and cocoa powder and voila, it's chocolate cake.

    also another thing, were you supposed to make a mousse or a soufflé? because this is my first time seeing a mousse recipe using egg whites instead of heavy cream.

  4. This just pissed me off to another level. Like girl just follow the damn recipe given by your grandfather and use your fuc*ing common sense. And the cherry on top was when you called yourself a “perfectionist” 💀

  5. idk why ppl are hating on her, she's already got so much courage to share her mistakes 😭

  6. I decided to make a cake and accidentally kept it in the oven for almost an hour instead of 45 minutes because the timer didn’t go through 😭
