  1. In a stainless steel mixing bowl, beat the egg yolks and superfine sugar together till mix is thick, pale yellow and falls back upon itself, forming a slowly dissolving ribbon. Beat in the orange liqueur. Then set mixing bowl over a pan of not-quite-simmering water and continue beating for 3 to 4 min till the mix is foamy and too warm for your finger. (Reserve warm water.)
  2. Place the bowl of beaten egg yolks over a bowl of cool water and beat 3 to 4 min, till the mix is cold and again forms the ribbon. It will have the consistency of mayonnaise.
  3. Heat chocolate with coffee over pan of warm water. Remove from heat and beat in the butter a bit at a time, to make a smooth cream. Beat the chocolate into the egg yolks and sugar, then beat in the orange peel; set aside.
  4. Beat the egg whites and salt till soft peaks form; sprinkle on the granulated sugar and beat till stiff peaks form. Stir one-fourth of the egg whites into the chocolate mix. Mix in the rest.
  5. Turn into serving dish, dessert c. or possibly petits pots. Chill for at least 2 hrs or possibly overnight.
  6. Pass the sauce or possibly whipped cream separately.
  7. Note: Because of the possibility of salmonella bacteria in raw Large eggs, FOODday home economists recommend using powdered egg whites or possibly pasteurized Large eggs, available at Trader Joe's markets.
  8. Note: Use real butter or possibly stick margarine. Don't substitute reduced-fat spreads; their higher water content often yields less-satisfactory results.
