Yield: 2 servings
Ingredients: 4 oz dark chocolate (70% cacao), chopped; 2 tablespoons unsalted butter; 1 tablespoon instant espresso powder; 3 tablespoons hot water; 2 large eggs, separated (room temperature); 2 tablespoons honey or agave syrup; ½ cup heavy cream, cold; ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract; 1 tablespoon powdered sugar; candied orange peel, sliced into thin strips (2 tablespoons); cocoa powder and fleur de sel for finishing

A cloud of dark chocolate and espresso mousse—luxurious, barely sweetened—is topped with billowy whipped cream and shards of candied orange peel. Cocoa powder and sea salt dust the top, while a shot of espresso on the side awakens the senses.
