    Using an electric mixer, beat eggwhites until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating until thick and glossy. Gently fold into chocolate mixture until combined. Divide between six serving glasses or bowls. Cover and chill for 2 hours, until set. Top with berries, if using, to serve.
