Sorry for the fuzzy pic. I only had my mobile phone ready to take pics.
The titel is a bit long and needs a translation:
Coffee-scented Chocolate mousse and its Tile made of Orange, Coffee beans and Chocolate! (Phew!)
Ingredients
- Mousse:
- Chocolate: Black and coffee scented/perfumed, 200 g
- Hot strong coffee: 1 cup
- Eggs: 5
- Butter: 50 g
- Sugar: 30 g
- Salt: 1 pinch
- Tuiles/Tiles
- Chocolate perfumed coffee beans: 40 g
- Coffee beans: 10
- Flour: 60 g
- Almonds (thinly sliced): 80 g
- Butter: 100g
- Brown sugar: 100 g
- Orange juice: 200 ml
Directions
- -Mousse
- Melt the chocolate and butter together over a bain-marie (one bowl into another bowl half full of water to avoid direct flame/fire contact with bowl). Dissolve the sugar into the strong hot coffee.
- When the chocolate has melted add the coffee. Delicately mix, neither too long, nor too strongly, or you will break the harmony of the chocolate. Let cool down to lukewarm.
- Break the eggs and separate the yolks and whites into two different bowls.
- Add the salt to the egg white and whisk them into a solid meringue.
- Add and mix the egg yolks into the coffee/butter/chocolate mixture.
- Add and delicately fold into the meringued egg whites.
- Pour the mousse into individual cups/bowls and leave inside the refrigerator for at least 3 hours.
- -Tuiles/Tiles
- Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius
- Dry fry the thinned almonds on a frypan.
- Crush the 10 coffee beans and add to the orange juice. Heat to boil.
- Reduce to half and then filter the juice.
- Melt butter on a very low fire. Then add the sugar, flour, orange juice and the almonds.
- Let the tile paste cool down completely before adding the chocolate perfumed coffee beans.
- On a non-stick oven plate (if unavailable, spread a cooking paper sheet over the oven sheet) pour the paste,1 tablespoon at a time and spread with back of the spoon.
- Bake the tiles. They must be a bit thick an soft under the teeth.
- Keep the tiles in a tightly closed box until you serve them with the mousse.
