Categories     dessert

Time 20h35m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

6 ounces good semisweet chocolate, chopped
2 ounces good bittersweet chocolate, chopped
1/4 cup orange liqueur (recommended: Grand Marnier)
1/4 cup water
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon grated orange zest
12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
8 extra-large eggs, at room temperature, separated
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
Pinch kosher salt
1/2 cup cold heavy cream
Whipped Cream, recipe follows, for decoration
Mandarin oranges, drained, for decoration
2 cups (1 pint) cold heavy cream
2 tablespoons sugar
Dash pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Combine the 2 chocolates, orange liqueur, 1/4 cup water, and the vanilla in a heat-proof bowl. Set it over a pan of simmering water just until the chocolate melts. Cool completely to room temperature. Whisk in the orange zest and butter until combined.
  • Place the egg yolks and 1/2 cup of the sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on high speed for 4 minutes, or until very thick and pale yellow. With the mixer on low speed, add the chocolate mixture. Transfer to a large bowl.
  • Place 1 cup of egg whites (save or discard the rest), the salt, and 1 tablespoon of the sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat on high speed until firm but not dry. Whisk 1/4 of the egg whites into the chocolate mixture; then fold the rest in carefully with a rubber spatula.
  • Without cleaning the bowl or whisk, whip the heavy cream and the remaining tablespoon of sugar until firm. Fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture. Pour the mousse into individual dishes or an 8-cup serving bowl. Chill and decorate with whipped cream and oranges. Serve with extra whipped cream on the side.
  • Whip the cream in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. When it starts to thicken, add the sugar and vanilla and continue to whip until the cream forms stiff peaks. Don't overbeat, or you'll end up with butter!

DARK CHOCOLATE MOUSSE WITH CANDIED GINGER



Dark Chocolate Mousse With Candied Ginger image

Always elegant, chocolate mousse is not at all difficult to make, and it can be prepared up to two days in advance. A classic chocolate mousse gets its foamy consistency from stiffly beaten egg whites. Though many recipes call for also folding in whipped cream, this one does not, the better to savor the intense chocolate experience. It has a hint of orange liqueur, a splash of espresso and a garnish of crystallized ginger.

Categories     custards and puddings, dessert

Time 2h20m

Yield 6 (4-ounce) servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 ounces/170 grams 70 percent dark chocolate (not unsweetened baking chocolate), in small chunks (about 1 cup)
1/2 cup/115 grams unsalted butter (1 stick)
2 tablespoons orange liqueur, such as Grand Marnier
1/4 cup/60 milliliters espresso
1/4 cup/50 grams granulated sugar
4 large eggs, whites and yolks separated, at room temperature
1/2 cup/120 milliliters whipping cream, for garnish
1 tablespoon granulated sugar (optional)
Drop of vanilla extract (optional)
1 1/2 ounces/40 grams crystallized ginger, chopped or slivered, for garnish (about 1/4 cup)

Steps:

  • Set a medium bowl over a saucepan of boiling water. (Don't let water touch the bottom of the bowl.) Reduce heat to a simmer. Add the chocolate, butter, orange liqueur and espresso. When chocolate is completely melted, about 10 minutes, remove from heat.
  • Add sugar and beat with a wire whisk until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is slightly thickened and glossy, 1 to 2 minutes. Let the mixture cool slightly, then quickly whisk in the egg yolks to incorporate.
  • In a clean, dry medium bowl, beat egg whites to stiff peaks. With a rubber spatula, stir 1/3 of the beaten egg whites into chocolate mixture to lighten it.
  • Gently fold in the remaining whites to incorporate, taking care not to deflate. (It's OK if mixture looks a little streaky.)
  • Pour mixture into 4-ounce ramekins or other vessels, like teacups or wine glasses. For a large version, pour into an attractive bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to 2 days in advance.
  • To serve, whip the cream to soft peaks. (Add a tablespoon of sugar and a drop of vanilla extract, if you wish.) Top each serving with a dollop of whipped cream and some crystallized ginger.

DARK CHOCOLATE ORANGE MOUSSE RECIPE - (4.3/5)



Dark Chocolate Orange Mousse Recipe - (4.3/5) image

Provided by JillMTM

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 Terry's Dark Chocolate Orange (175g)
50 g unsalted butter, cubed
4 large free range eggs, separated into yolks and whites
2 dessert spoons of caster sugar

Steps:

  • Break the chocolate orange up into segments and place in a heatproof bowl or Pyrex jug. Chocolate Orange segments In a saucepan, bring some water to the boil and then reduce to a simmer. Hold the bowl of chocolate just over the simmering water and stir the chocolate once it has started to melt. Once melted add the cubes of butter and when all has melted and blended move the mixture away from the pan of water and set aside to cool for a few minutes. While it's cooling, mix the separated egg yolks with the caster sugar. And then add the yolks to the chocolate and butter. Don't add them if the mixture is too hot as you don't want scrambled egg in your chocolate mousse! In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites until they are thick and when you remove the whisk from the mixture it shouldn't drip. Fold the whisked egg whites into the chocolate mixture and stir until all is mixed together. Spoon or pour your mixture into small bowls, glasses or espresso cups. Place the individual mousses in the fridge to set. Allow at least 3 hours for the mousse to set properly.
