What seems an eternity ago, when I first bought a Cusinart, in the (late?)
70's, there was a small booklet of recipes that included recipes of James Beard.
I recall with lip-smacking delight his recipe for Chocolate Mousse. It had a lot of blanched almonds in it. I have never seen this exact recipe again. I have looked in many books and on the internet. I wonder if it is in anyone's library of recipes.
thanks, Dee

Would it be possible to post the chocolate Mousse recipe? In a move my small cookbook was lost. I can still close my eyes and taste that wonderful mousse.
Thanks, Anita Smith

Olive Oil Chocolate Mousse Heather Carlucci-Rodriguez Pastry chef turned Indian take-out queen Heather Carlucci-Rodriguez demonstrated how to make this rich, dairy-free chocolate mousse at her chocolate workshop at the Beard House. The recipe was inspired by her good friend, Teresa Barrenechea, author of The Basque Table (2005) and The Cuisine of Spain: Exploring Regional Home Cooking (2005) and chef/owner of Marichu restaurant in NYC. For the most delicate flavor, choose a sweet, subtle olive oil, such as those produced in the Lake Garda region of Italy.
Yield
8 servings
Ingredients
6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
3 large eggs, separated
2/3 cup confectioners' sugar
3/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup brewed espresso
2 tablespoons liqueur, such as blackberry brandy Method Melt the chocolate over a double broiler and allow it to cool to room temperature.
Beat the egg yolks and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer on high speed until light and lemon yellow in color. Reduce the mixer speed to low and add the olive oil in a slow, steady stream, as you would for a mayonnaise. Once the olive oil has been incorporated, add the melted chocolate, espresso, and liqueur. Mix on low speed until combined.
In a separate bowl, whip the egg whites until they form medium peaks. Fold the whites thoroughly into the chocolate mixture and refrigerate until set, at least 3 hours.
