Put ten 2 1/2-inch ramekins on a baking sheet.

Cut 10 six-inch-long sheets of foil and fold each sheet so it is 3 inches wide.

Wrap the foil collars around the ramekins with 1 edge flush with the baking sheet; tape the foil collars to secure them.

The collars should extend 2 to 2 1/2 inches beyond the ramekins.

Using a rubber spatula, fold the cooled egg mixture into the chocolate mixture, then fold in the whipped cream until no streaks remain.

Spoon the mousse into the chilled ramekins and tap them gently to release any air bubbles.
