Cook’s notes: Ring in the New Year with this rich, decadent and oh, so good dessert with a bubbly glass of champagne. Serve the mousse in small demitasse-like cups. Add a plate of cookies and you are ready to toast 2022. 
Makes 5-6 small servings.
Ingredients:
  • ¾ cup chilled heavy cream
  • 4 large eggs at room temperature
  • ¼ cup strong coffee or espresso at room temperature
  • Dash of salt
  • 3 teaspoons sugar, divided
  • 1/8 teaspoon crème of tartar
  • 8 oz. of good quality semi-sweet chocolate chopped or bittersweet chocolate (61-72% cacao) for this recipe I used one bar of each.
  • 2 tablespoons Kahlua or Amaretto
Directions:
  • Separate yolks and whites.
  • Beat 3/4 cup whipping cream and refrigerate.
  • Combine egg yolks, coffee or espresso, salt, and 2 teaspoons sugar in a metal bowl.
  • Whisk ingredients and set bowl in a larger pan of simmering water.
  • Whisk constantly until mixture is lighter in color and has doubled in volume about 6 minutes.
  • Remove bowl from water and stir in chopped chocolate pieces. Whisk until chocolate is blended into egg mixture.
  • Add in Kahlua or Amaretto, mix well and cool to room temperature.
  • Beat egg whites in another bowl with crème of tartar and the remaining 1 teaspoon of sugar. Beat until firm peaks form.
  • Gently fold egg whites into whipped cream mixture.
  • Fold egg whites/whip cream mixtures into chocolate/egg mixture.
  • Spoon into serving cups. Top with crushed almonds or toasted coconut.
  • Refrigerate until serving.
