| Group 1 | |
| 1 cup Skim Milk | 1/4 cup Granulated Sugar |
| 3 tblsp. Flour | 4 oz egg substitute |
| 1 tsp. Vanilla | 1 cup Unsweetened Cocoa |
| 1 oz. Triple Sec Liqueur | 2 tblsp. Orange Marmalade |
| Group 2 | |
| 2 tsp. Unflavored Gelatin | 4 tblsp. water |
| 1/2 cup Nonfat Dry Milk | 1 cup Skim Milk |
| 2 tbsp. Granulated Sugar | |
| Group 3 | |
| 4 each egg whites | 1/2 cup Confectioners Sugar |
| Combine skim milk, sugar and flour in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat stirring constantly until mixture thickens and begins to boil. Boil one minute, removed from heat and gradually stir in egg substitute until well blended. Stir in unsweetened cocoa, liqueur and orange marmalade. Place mixture in a large bowl and set aside. In a small saucepan, moisten unflavored gelatin with water and dissolve mixture over low heat. When the mixture is clear, remove from heat and set aside. Dissolve nonfat dry milk and sugar into the skim milk. ADD the gelatin mixture to the skim milk mixture and blend well. Place mixture in mixing bowl and whip on high speed until mixture peaks and has an airy consistency. Add this mixture to the chocolate cream. Using a whisk, stir in whipped topping until mixture is smooth in texture. Place egg whites in a clean mixing bowl and whip on high speed. When whites begin to rise, add confectioners sugar and continue beating until whites rise and are STIFF, but not dry (the tip of the whites will curl slightly off a spoon which has been inserted and held out). Add one half of the egg whites to the chocoloate cream mixture and gently fold in. Repeat this process with the remaining egg whites. Spoon into large wine glasses or dessert dishes and chill one hour until mixture sets up. If a whipped topping is desired, use one half of ingredients of group 2, dissolving gelatin mixture and adding to skim milk mixture. Whip until airy and spoon on top of each serving. Garnish with fresh fruits such as sliced strawberries, raspberries or toasted almonds or pecans. | |
