3 oz unsweetened chocolate
1 cup milk
1/4 cup egg substitute*
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp cornstarch
1 tsp orange extract
1/2 cup whipping cream
3 cups sliced fresh strawberries
In a medium heavy-bottom saucepan, place the chocolate and milk. Heat over a medium heat until the chocolate is melted; set aside.
In a small mixing bowl, stir together the egg substitute, sugar, cornstarch, and orange extract until blended. Add to the chocolate mixture in the saucepan. Stirring constantly, cook over medium heat 3 or 4 minutes or until the mixture begins to thicken. Remove from heat.
Pour the mixture into a food processor or blender and blend or process very briefly, about 10 to 20 seconds, to make a more creamy texture. Pour mixture into a medium bowl and cover. Refrigerate for about 2 hours until cooled.
Whip cream until stiff and fold gently into the chocolate mixture. Refrigerate mousse overnight to set. (You may refrigerate up to 3 days.)
To serve, layer the mousse with the strawberries in 6 wine glasses or pretty footed dessert dishes, beginning and ending with the mousse. If desired, top each with a dollop of whipped cream and a strawberry.
*May substitute 1 whole egg for the egg substitute.
