INTENSE CHOCOLATE MOUSSE CAKE

There is very little that needs to be said about a chocolate mousse cake. This one lives up to its name. It is gloriously intense. But the whisked egg whites ensure that it has a balancing lightness. A slice of it, with a smattering of fresh raspberries and a dollop of cream, or better still, sour cream, is the perfect finale. It may also invite a certain inelegant gluttony at the end. I have noticed that even those who claim not to go in for desserts come back for more.

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Position the oven rack in lower center of the oven. Cover the outside of a 9-inch springform pan with a double layer of foil. Using a microwave oven or double boiler, melt together chocolate and butter; set aside to cool slightly.
  • In a bowl, whisk together egg yolks and 1/2 cup sugar until pale, frothy and increased in volume. Whisk in brandy, then fold in chocolate mixture. Place a kettle of water over heat, and bring it to a boil. Using an electric mixer, whisk egg whites and salt until thick. Add remaining 1/4 cup sugar, and continue to whisk until stiff and shiny but not dry.
  • Fold about 1/2 cup whisked egg whites into the chocolate mixture to lighten it. Gently fold in remaining whites, being careful not to let the mixture deflate. Pour mixture into lightly-buttered springform pan, and place pan in a roasting pan. Add boiling water to roasting pan to come halfway up side of springform pan. Bake for 45 minutes; top of cake will be hard and inside will be gooey.
  • Remove cake pan from water, and place on a rack to cool completely. Unwrap foil and remove side of springform pan. Place cake on a serving platter. Just before serving, dust top with confectioners' sugar passed through a sieve.

10 ounces bittersweet chocolate
9 tablespoons unsalted butter
6 large eggs, room temperature and separated
Pinch of salt
3/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons brandy
1 teaspoon confectioners' sugar

  • In a medium sized (at least a quart) microwave safe bowl, melt the butter and chocolate together in the microwave in 30 second increments, stirring with a fork after each until it is melted. (To make sure not to burn the chocolate, I like to stop when the chocolate still isn't 100% melted because the residual heat will melt it). Stir in the espresso powder. It's okay if it doesn't dissolve totally.
  • Separate the eggs. (I separate the eggs in a small bowl first and then transfer then the whites to big bowl one at a time, and the yolks to another to ensure that all of my whites are yolk-free. The smallest amount of yolk mixed into the whites will keep the whites from whipping up.)
