Make the caramel sauce:

Into a small saucepan, melt the sugar on medium heat until it becomes liquid and turns into a golden color (Don’t try to accelerate the process by increasing the heat, you could burn your caramel sauce, and also to avoid projections when adding butter and cream)

Out of the heat, add butter in one batch and stir until incorporated (the caramel will very much bubble)

Add cream all at a time and salt, again the caramel will bubble, stir until incorporated

Immediately remove 1/2 cup (120g) of caramel sauce and pour it into a heat proof bowl, out of it pour 1 tbsp. of salted caramel sauce into each serving glass, chill glasses in your refrigerator (you will have some caramel sauce left over that we will use later)

Immediately add the dark chocolate to the hot caramel sauce remaining into the saucepan, stir until all melted and incorporated

Set aside to cool about 15 minutes

Make the chocolate mousse:

Add the chocolate mixture to a large bowl

Add the egg yolks, one at a time, stirring well after each addition

With an electric mixer, whisk the egg whites until stiff peaks

Add three tbsp. of egg whites to the chocolate mixture, stir vigorously to incorporate and thin the chocolate

Add the rest of the egg whites and incorporate delicately without deflating

Fill your serving glasses and chill for a minimum of 4 hours

Before serving, add a dollop of whipped cream and drizzle some leftover caramel sauce
