Ingredients
- 200 gram Dark chocolate Minimum 59%
- 75 gram Strong coffee Cold
- 2 pcs. Egg Yolk
- 0.5 l Whipping Cream
- Cocoa powder For garnish
Instructions
- Start by making a cup of very strong coffee; pour it into a measuring cup and place it in the fridge or freezer until it reaches room temperature.
- Chop the chocolate into smaller pieces (if you're not using chocolate chips) and melt them over a water bath.
- Meanwhile, whip the cream into whipped cream.
- Pour the coffee and egg yolks into the chocolate and use a spatula to gently fold them together.
- Then, carefully fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture. The chocolate mousse is now ready to be portioned as you wish.
- We often use a beer glass or a smaller glass for portioning.
- In this case, we used a round spiral silicone baking mold. The great thing about mousse is that it sets, so it can easily be in a square mold as well.
- Pour the mousse into the baking mold and cool it for at least 6 hours.
- It's a good idea to make the dish the day before or in the morning if you're expecting guests in the evening.
- Take the mousse out of the mold 10 minutes before serving.
- Shortly before serving, sprinkle it with cocoa powder.
- For example, serve it with a berry sorbet.
