Recipe Courtesy of Nick Malgieri This delectable dessert is the richest and easiest to make of delicious frozen chocolate sweets.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 6 ounces bittersweet chocolate
  • 6 ounces of unsweetened chocolate
  • 1 stick unsalted butter
  • 2/3 cup egg whites (from about 5 large eggs)
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • Cocoa powder or chocolate shavings for finishing

Instructions

  1. Place the 9-inch springform pan or other stainless steel molds in the freezer. Whip the cream to soft peaks and refrigerate until needed.
  2. Melt both chocolates over hot water, remove from heat, and work in butter; set aside.
  3. Combine egg whites and sugar in a bowl of an electric mixer; and place over a pan of simmering water. Whisk gently until egg whites are hot and sugar is dissolved. Use an electric mixer to beat until cooled and increased in volume.
  4. Quickly fold together the chocolate mixture and meringue. Taste a spoonful to make sure the mixture is not any warmer than room temperature. If it is, let it cool for a few minutes before folding in the whipped cream, or the cream will melt and separate.
  5. Scrape into a frozen spring-form pan or mold and smooth the top with an offset metal spatula. Cover the pie tightly with plastic wrap. Freeze overnight before serving.
  6. To unmold, dip a small, thin knife in hot water and run it around the inside of the pan. Unbuckle the side of the springform pan and remove the ring. Cover the dessert with a platter, invert, then lift off the pan bottom. Top with chocolate shavings and freeze until ready to serve.
