Chocolate Hazelnut Mousse
 

 


Soft

preparation

In a medium bowl beat the egg whites until frothy, then while beating gradually add 6 teaspoons sugar until the whites form stiff peaks. In another medium bowl beat the egg yolks with 6 teaspoons sugar until thick and light yellow. In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate in the coffee for a few seconds (watch carefully; you don’t want it to bubble) and add to the egg yolks, beating thoroughly. Add hazelnut syrup if desired. Fold the egg whites into the yolks. Put into 4 small (about 4-5 ounces) individual ramekins and chill for about 4 hours. Serves 4.
