recipe

  • Step 1
    Melt the chocolate (about 1 oz per serving) in a heat safe bowl over a pot of boiling water, or microwave the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30 second intervals. Once smooth & well melted, remove from heat.
  • Step 2
    Separate the egg whites from the yolks. Add the egg whites to a large mixing bowl & set aside.
  • Step 3
    Pour the egg yolks into the bowl with the melted chocolate & mix. Zest the orange into the bowl & mix until the smooth.
  • Step 4
    In the bowl with the egg whites, add a pinch of salt. Beat the egg whites with a hand mixer until they are stiff. Then, add the brown sugar & beat again until glossy, about 2-3 min.
  • Step 5
    Using a spatula, delicately fold the egg whites into the chocolate in several batches.
  • Step 6
    Pour the mixture into individual cups or small ramekins, alternating chocolate mousse & crumbled cookies. Refrigerate for at least an hour before serving.
  • Step 7
    Take the chocolate mousses out of the fridge. Add crumbled cookies & more orange zest if desired. Enjoy!
