- 120 ml cream
- 6 egg whites

- 30 ml brewed coffee (shot of strong coffee)

How to Make
-
Step 1: Add chocolate and cream to a glass bowl and place over a pot of gently simmering water and with a metal spoon (DO NOT USE A WOODEN SPOON) stir until the chocolate has melted and then remove from the heat and cool slightly.
-
Step 2: In a mixer, whisk the egg whites until soft peaks form and then add the sugar and whisk until stiff peaks form.
-
Step 3: Add egg yolks to the chocolate along with the coffee and mix to combine.
-
Step 4: Now gently mix in 1/3 of the egg whites into the chocolate mixture and then add the remaining egg whites and gently fold in to retain the light airy texture.
