Note
Ensure the bowl used for beating egg whites is completely dry and free of any grease, as even a small amount of fat can prevent the whites from whipping up properly.
For a dairy-free version, substitute the yogurt with a thick coconut yogurt or plant-based alternative.
You can prepare this dessert up to 24 hours in advance. Keep it covered in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
If you prefer a stronger chocolate flavor, increase the amount of cocoa powder slightly or use 85% cocoa chocolate.
Make sure the gelatin is fully dissolved before adding it to the chocolate mixture to avoid lumps.
