Mousse Au Chocolat (Belgium) image

This recipe was found on www.recipes.wuzzle.org where it was adapted from Everybody Eats Well in Belgium. I'm posting it here as I look forward to the ZWT6! The preparation time does not include the several hours needed for the mousse to firm up in the refrigerator.

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

5 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
1/4 cup coffee, brewed strong
4 large egg whites
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
1/4 cup whipping cream
1 teaspoon dark rum (optional)
2 ounces chocolate, shaved for garnish

Steps:

  • In the top of a double boiler, combine the chopped bittersweet chocolate & the strong coffee, then set it over simmering water, stirring occasionally until chocolate has melted. Remove from heat & let cool slightly.
  • Meanwhile with an electric mixer beat egg whites until soft peaks form, then gradually beat in the powdered sugar & continue to beat until egg whites hold a stiff peak.
  • In a separate bowl, beat whipping cream into soft peaks.
  • Use a spatula to fold the whipped EGG WHITES into the chocolate, & then carefully fold in the whipping cream & the rum.
  • Spoon the chocolate mousse into 4 glasses & cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for several hours, so that the mousse has time to firm up.
  • Before serving, garnish with chocolate shavings.
