Recipe Summary French Chocolate Mousse With Orange
A traditional chocolate mousse with a hint of orange flavor. This luxurious dairy-free and low-carb mousse is made simply with eggs and chocolate. Omit the orange zest for a plain chocolate mousse.
Ingredients | Dairy Free Gluten Free Dessert Recipes1 orange, zested7 ounces dark chocolate (65 to 70% cocao), chopped into small pieces2 tablespoons strong brewed coffee, or more to taste6 eggs, separated, room temperature1 pinch saltDirectionsGrind orange zest using a mortar and pestle until it forms a smooth paste.Combine chocolate, coffee, and orange zest in the top of a double boiler over simmering water. Stir frequently, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching, until chocolate is melted, about 5 minutes. Stir until smooth and remove from heat. Allow to cool slightlyBeat egg whites and salt in a glass, metal, or ceramic bowl until stiff peaks form (see Editor's Note).Add egg yolks to the slightly cooled chocolate mixture and stir until well combined. Pour over egg whites. Carefully fold together using a spatula until just combined.Pour mixture into 10 small dessert glasses or 1 large serving dish. Refrigerate at least 6 hours to overnight.For food safety reasons, we recommend using pasteurized-in-the-shell eggs. The egg whites will take longer to whip, but will form stiff peaks; just keep beating them.Info | Dairy Free Gluten Free Dessert Recipesprep:
