"Mousse" began with the Early Latin word "mulsus" ("Mulsus" was wine mixed with honey; the word itself meant "mixed with honey"). "Mulsus" turned into the Latin word "mulsum" ("Mulsum" was "mulsus" with a new definition; "Mulsum" literally meant "honey wine"). "Mulsum" turned into the Late Latin word "mulsa" ("Mulsa" was another new word that still meant "honey wine"). "Mulsa" turned into the Old French word "mousse" ("Mousse" meant "frothy"). The word is used as a noun for a french desert plate, and a type of hairstyling product. Mousse originated in France at an unspecified date, by an unconfirmed group of people (it may have been a single person alone). (unknown - needs editing)

Where did Chocolate Mousse come from?

It is origin from France, I believed. Mousse, a French word meaning foam, is a form of dessert typically made from egg and cream, usually in combination with other flavors, most commonly chocolate or fruit. Once only a specialty of French restaurants, chocolate mousse entered into American and English home cuisine in the 1960s. The first written record of chocolate mousse in the United States comes from a Food Exposition held at Madison Square Garden in New York City in 1892. A "Housekeeper's Column" in the Boston Daily Globe of 1897 published one of the first recipes for chocolate mousse. This recipe produced a pudding-like dish very different from today's stiffer, but still fluffy, mousse. Mousse became as we know it with the introduction of egg whites, separated from the yolks. When white chocolate became the chocolate choice in the 80s, food companies scrambled to devise new ways of using it in tandem with their own products. After chef Michel Fitoussi created a white chocolate mousse in New York City in 1977, people couldn't get enough. Mousse was perhaps the most popular of the white chocolate desserts.

Can you substitute chocolate chips for melting chocolate?

Chocolate chips or shavings can be melted to be used for chocolate mousse, and can also be added to the chocolate mousse when it's done to add structure to it. Do not add the chocolate chips or shavings in when the mousse is still very hot, or it will melt and then you will lose that extra texture.
