Chocolate Mousse

Having a BBQ today, and decided to go for this little thing. Can't get enough of chocoloate...

Ingredients

* 5 eggs
* 140g of dark chocolate
* 1 teaspoon of instant coffee
* 1 table spoon of rhum, Grand Marnier, or Amaretto (only if you want to)
* 3 table spoons of sugar

Preparation

* Very slowly melt the chocolate with the instant coffee. Be careful not to burn it.
* Separate the eggs into egg white and egg yolk. Make sure to keep the egg whites free of yolk, in a clean bowl.
* Beat the egg white, with one table spoon of sugar.
* Mix the egg yolk with two table spoons of sugar and one table spoon of rhum.
* Mix the egg yolk into the molten chocolate.
* Very carefully mix the beaten egg white and the chocolate.
* Pour into small bowls or glasses and store in a cool place.

The chocolate mousse is at its best after one or two days.
