Chocolate Mousse with Orange Liqueur Sauce

Melt the two types of chocolate in a water bath and then allow to cool slightly.

Whip the eggs in a bain-marie until thick and creamy, then add the melted chocolate.

Whip the cream until stiff and fold into the egg mixture. Cover and refrigerate for a few hours.

Wash one orange while hot, use a zester or sharp kitchen knife to peel off a few strips of zest and set aside. Squeeze all oranges (yields about 300 ml juice).

Mix orange juice with lemon juice. Add sugar and boil down in a saucepan. Add the orange liqueur.

Divide the sauce evenly among four dessert plates. Use a tablespoon to make dumplings of the chocolate mousse.

Decorate the dessert as desired with chocolate shavings and orange strips.

Preparation Tip:

If you don't want alcohol, you can make this dessert without sauce or add another sauce to taste.
