Mint White Chocolate Mousse

Ingredients:
• 4 oz Chocolate, white
• 3 tb Creme de menthe, green
• 1 c Cream, heavy
• 2 Egg whites (at room temperature)

Directions:
Melt the white chocolate in a double boiler. When melted, stir in the creme de menthe. Let it cool a bit and stir in about 2 1/2 T of cream. Let cool.

Beat the egg whites until stiff, but not dry. Fold the chocolate-creme-cream mixture into the beaten egg whites. The more carefully you fold, the lighter will be the mousse. Whip the remaining cream, until soft peaks form. Fold the egg whites-chocolate mixture into the whipped cream. Again, the more air you preserve, the lighter the mousse. Spoon carefully into small bowls or cups and chill for about two hours.
