Ingredients
6 ounces dark chocolate, chopped
3 eggs, separated
2/3 cup confectioner sugar
2 tablespoons Cointreau
1/4 cup double expresso coffee or 1 tabelspoon instant coffee
3/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
Directions
- Melt the chocolate in a small saucepan over very low heat or in the microwave. Set aside until cooled down. In a bowl beat the egg yolks and the sugar until smooth. Add Cointreau and coffee to the mixture and stir in the melted chocolate. Whisk until well mixed. Add the extra virgin olive oil to the bowl and mix well with the other ingredients, until perfectly blended. In a separate bowl beat the whites until foamy, almost stiff. Add the chocolate mixture to the beaten whites, gently folding until thoroughly mixed. Spoon the mixture into a round 10-inch diameter mold and refrigerate. Serve chilled.;
