Deep Dark Blender Mousse
- 12 ounces Chocolate
- 4 eggs (room temperature)
- 1 cup hot coffee
- Dash cinnamon (or vanilla or bourbon)
- Dash salt
- Start by chopping your chocolate in to manageable pieces. I don't like chips in principle because they have wax coating, and you only need it small enough for your blender to handle (ie if you have a Vitamix, your chunks will be larger than mine)
- Load chocolate in to blender. Start grinding up the chocolate into bits until it looks like dirt. Meanwhile, brew your coffee.
- Add the eggs, cinnamon/extract/booze and salt and continue blending until you have a grainy paste. Taste and adjust flavorings and salt.
- Now add the coffee in two parts, blending in between. The coffee will lubricate the mixture while melting the chocolate. Help it along with a rubber spatula until it is grainy no more. Heat from the blender should prevent it from getting to thick to manage.
- Pour in to the serving vessels of your choice. Chill for 30 minutes (15-20 in the freezer if you're really rushed). The longer you keep it in, the more dense yet luscious.
