Introduction

I love this recipe. It's great for parties with a lot of non-dieters because it's super rich, but you can eat it without guilt!

This is from the Gordon Ramsay book "La cuisine en toute simplicite." I'm sure there's an English version out there, and I highly suggest the book! I love this recipe. It's great for parties with a lot of non-dieters because it's super rich, but you can eat it without guilt!

Ingredients

33 grams Dark Chocolate, at least 60% coco

2 eggs

Dab of preferred alcohol: recipe calls for Grand Marnier, but I usually use whatever's handy.

Directions

-Melt the chocolate in a double-broiler or under very low heat. Be careful not to keep it on the stove too long, or it becomes hard again.
-Leave chocolate to cool.
-Separate the egg whites and beat them to stiff peaks.
-Mix the yolks into the melted chocolate and add the alcohol.
-Carefully fold the chocolate mixture into the egg whites until well mixed.
-place in two custard bowls/wine glasses and chill at least 3 hours before serving.
