Zubereitung von Julia Child's Mousseline Au Chocolat Chocolate Mousse
- **Whisk Egg Yolks and Sugar:** In a heatproof bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and sugar until pale yellow and thick, forming ribbons when the whisk is lifted.
- **Add Liqueur:** Whisk in the orange liqueur.
- **Bain-Marie (Warm Water Bath):** Set the bowl over a saucepan of barely simmering water (make sure the bottom of the bowl doesn't touch the water). Whisk constantly for 3-4 minutes, until the mixture is thick and warm to the touch.
- **Ice Bath:** Remove from heat and place the bowl over a bowl of ice water. Whisk for another 3-4 minutes, until the mixture is cool and has the consistency of mayonnaise.
- **Melt Chocolate:** In a double boiler or heat-safe bowl set over a pan of simmering water, melt the chocolate and coffee, stirring occasionally, until smooth and glossy.
- **Incorporate Butter:** Remove from heat and gradually whisk in the softened butter, a little at a time, until completely incorporated and the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- **Combine Chocolate and Egg Yolks:** Gently whisk the melted chocolate mixture into the cooled egg yolk mixture until thoroughly combined.
- **Whip Egg Whites:** In a clean, grease-free bowl, beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until soft peaks form.
- **Stiff Peaks:** Gradually add the remaining sugar and continue beating until stiff, glossy peaks form.
- **Fold in Egg Whites:** Gently fold ¼ of the whipped egg whites into the chocolate mixture to lighten it. Then, carefully fold in the remaining egg whites in two additions, being careful not to deflate the mixture.
- **Chill:** Divide the mousse into individual serving dishes, cups, or champagne flutes. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the mousse to set completely.
- **Serve:** Garnish with whipped cream (optional) before serving and enjoy!
