Chocolate mousse with coffee and dark rum
Ingredients
- Butter - 6 oz
- 70% Dark Chocolate - 6 oz
- Ground Coffee - 0.2 oz
- Farm fresh eggs - 4 pieces
- Sugar - 6.3 oz
- Dark rum - 2 tablespoons
- Salt - a pinch
- Vanilla extract - ½ teaspoon
Step by Step guide
Step 1
Melt the chocolate with butter and coffee in a double boiler. Remove from heat.
Step 2
Fill a large bowl with ice water and set aside.
Step 3
In a sufficiently large bowl, using a hand mixer over a double boiler, whisk 4 egg yolks with 2/3 cup of sugar, rum, and 1 tablespoon of water.
Step 4
Remove from heat and immediately, while continuing to whisk, place the bowl with the yolk mixture into the bowl with ice water. Whisk until the yolk mixture cools. Add the melted chocolate with butter to the yolks.
Step 5
In a separate bowl, whisk 4 egg whites with salt. Then add 1 tablespoon of sugar and continue whisking until thick, gradually adding the vanilla extract.
Step 6
Gently fold 1/3 of the whipped egg whites into the chocolate mixture, mixing carefully. Gradually add the remaining egg whites. Be careful not to overmix, or the mousse will lose its volume.
Step 7
Divide the mousse into serving dishes and refrigerate for at least 4 hours to set.
