Description

Ingredients

• 3½ ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
• 3 large eggs (pasteurized preferred, I used Safest Choice brand), separated, room temperature
• Pinch of salt
• ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
• ¼ teaspoon coffee extract (if not using, up the vanilla to 1 teaspoon)
• 1½ teaspoons sugar
• Fresh raspberries, mint and sweetened whipped cream to garnish, optional

Directions

• Place chocolate in microwave safe bowl and microwave at 50%, stopping and stirring frequently till chocolate is almost melted. Let sit a minute, then stir till smooth. Add
• egg yolks, one at a time, to warm melted chocolate and whisk until smooth. Stir in extracts.
• Using a hand or stand mixer, beat egg whites and pinch of salt in another medium bowl until soft peaks form.
• Gradually add 1½ teaspoons sugar, beating constantly until whites are glossy and
• firm peaks form. Using a spatula, fold ¼ of beaten whites into chocolate mixture to lighten. Gently fold remaining whites into chocolate just until incorporated.
• Divide mousse among 4 bowls. Cover and chill about 4 hours. Garnish with a dollop of whipped cream, berries and mint to serve.
