Categories     dessert

Time 4h45m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup cold vegetable shortening
6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
2 tablespoons ice water
2 tablespoons cold vodka
6 ounces semisweet chocolate, finely chopped
2 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
Pinch of kosher salt
1/3 cup confectioners' sugar
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/3 cup confectioners' sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 cup chocolate syrup
1 tablespoon instant espresso powder
2 tablespoons chocolate-covered espresso beans, chopped

Steps:

  • Make the crust: Pulse the flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar and salt in a food processor to combine. Add the shortening and pulse until the mixture looks like cornmeal. Add the butter and pulse a few times until it is in pea-size pieces. Add the ice water and vodka and pulse until the dough starts coming together but is still crumbly. Turn out onto a piece of plastic wrap and pat into a disk, using the plastic wrap to help you. Wrap and refrigerate until very firm, at least 1 hour and up to 24 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Roll out the dough into a 12-inch round on a lightly floured surface. Ease into a 9-inch pie plate. Fold the overhanging dough under itself and crimp the edge with your fingers. Refrigerate until firm, at least 30 minutes. Line the crust with foil and fill with dried beans or pie weights. Bake until the edge is dry, about 20 minutes. Remove the foil and beans and continue baking until dry all over, 15 to 20 more minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool completely.
  • Meanwhile, make the filling. Put the chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl. Combine 3/4 cup heavy cream and the butter in a small saucepan; bring to a boil, then immediately pour over the chocolate. Add the vanilla and salt (do not stir), cover with plastic wrap and let stand 5 minutes. Whisk until melted and smooth. (If there are pieces of unmelted chocolate, microwave in 15-second intervals until smooth.) Set aside to cool.
  • Beat the remaining 1 3/4 cups heavy cream and the confectioners' sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium speed until stiff peaks form, about 4 minutes. Gently fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture in three batches (do not overmix; the filling should be light and airy). Transfer to the cooled pie crust and smooth the top. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, at least 2 hours.
  • Remove the pie from the refrigerator 15 minutes before serving. Make the topping: Beat the heavy cream and confectioners' sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form, about 3 minutes. Stir the chocolate syrup and espresso powder in a small bowl until dissolved. Fold about 2 tablespoons of the chocolate syrup mixture into the whipped cream, then spread on the pie. Drizzle with the remaining syrup mixture; sprinkle with the espresso beans.

MOCHA MOUSSE

Categories     dessert

Time 2h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

14 ounces bittersweet chocolate
1/2 cup espresso or strong brewed coffee
1 cup heavy cream
10 eggs, separated
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
Pinch of salt
1 to 2 tablespoons Cognac (optional)

Steps:

  • Coarsely chop chocolate and melt it with coffee in a double boiler over (not in) boiling water, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon to quicken melting and to prevent overheating. Remove from over boiling water. Let cool to room temperature.
  • Meanwhile, whip cream until peaks hold their shape.
  • In bowl of an electric mixer, whip egg yolks with 1/4 cup sugar 4 to 5 minutes, until very thick and pale (the consistency should be that of a heavy mayonnaise). Beat in vanilla.
  • If egg whites are cooler than room temperature, warm by stirring briefly over boiling or hot water. In a clean, dry copper bowl, or in bowl of electric mixer, whip egg whites slowly until they start to foam. Increase speed to medium. When they are an opaque white add remaining 1/2 cup of sugar and salt and beat at medium speed until soft white peaks form.
  • Stir egg yolks into chocolate mixture; both should be at room temperature or slightly warmer. If the chocolate is not, stir it briefly over boiling or hot water. Add Cognac, if desired.
  • Fold in whipped cream, working quickly and being careful not to deflate the mixture. Fold in half the egg whites, then remaining egg whites.
  • Turn mixture out into a serving bowl or ramekins and let cool in refrigerator at least 2 hours, preferably 4, before serving.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A semisweet or bittersweet chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 60% is ideal.
  • Make sure the cream is very cold before whipping it. This will help it whip up faster and more easily.
  • Don't overbeat the cream. Overbeaten cream will become grainy and lose its smoothness.
  • If you don't have a pastry bag, you can use a zip-top bag with the corner snipped off.
  • To make the Sichuan peppercorn syrup, combine equal parts sugar and water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and stir in the Sichuan peppercorns. Let cool completely.
  • To serve, spoon the mousse into individual serving glasses or ramekins. Top with the Sichuan peppercorn syrup and a few Sichuan peppercorns.

Conclusion:

This mocha mousse with Sichuan peppercorns is a unique and delicious dessert that is sure to impress your guests. The combination of chocolate, coffee, and Sichuan peppercorns creates a complex and flavorful mousse that is both light and airy. The Sichuan peppercorn syrup adds a subtle heat and spice that complements the chocolate and coffee flavors perfectly. This mousse is perfect for a special occasion or a romantic dinner.
