Olive oil makes this bittersweet chocolate mousse kosher for a meat meal. Joan Nathan brought the recipe to The Times in 2007. "This is a contemporary dessert from Tangiers, a city with a blend of cultures," the cookbook author Ana Benarroch de Bensadón said. "Originally this recipe included butter and cream, but we replaced it with olive oil, making it 'parve' or neutral."

Time 25m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

11 ounces bittersweet chocolate (60 percent cacao)
8 large eggs, separated
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons kosher for passover brandy or 2 tablespoons coffee

Steps:

  • In a double boiler, melt chocolate over low heat. Cool slightly. Beat egg yolks with 1/2 cup sugar until light. Whisk in olive oil, brandy and melted chocolate.
  • Using an electric mixer, whisk egg whites until soft peaks form. Add remaining 1/4 cup sugar, whisking until stiff but not dry.
  • Fold whites into chocolate mixture so that no white streaks remain. Spoon into an 8- or 10-cup serving bowl or divide among 8 or 10 dessert cups or glasses. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 24 hours before serving.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The quality of the chocolate will greatly impact the flavor of the mousse. Use a chocolate that is at least 70% cacao for a rich, decadent flavor.
  • Use extra virgin olive oil: Extra virgin olive oil has a fruity, peppery flavor that will complement the chocolate. Make sure to use a high-quality olive oil that you enjoy the taste of.
  • Whip the cream until stiff peaks form: This will help to create a light and fluffy mousse. Be careful not to overwhip the cream, or it will become grainy.
  • Fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture gently: This will help to prevent the mousse from deflating.
  • Chill the mousse for at least 4 hours before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld and the mousse to set.
  • Garnish the mousse with fresh berries, chocolate shavings, or a dollop of whipped cream: This will add a touch of elegance and flavor to the dish.

Conclusion:

Chocolate olive oil mousse is a delicious and elegant dessert. It is perfect for any occasion, from a romantic dinner to a holiday party. With its rich, decadent flavor and light and fluffy texture, this mousse is sure to impress your guests.
