1
Chop chocolate into small pieces and place in a bowl large enough to contain all of the ingredients and accommodate the folding process. Place the bowl over a bain marie or a simmering water bath. Make sure the bowl is not touching the water and the water is kept to a simmer. Take off the heat when the chocolate is melted.
2
Gently bring the milk to a boil and whisk in the espresso powder until it is completely dissolved. Pour over the melted chocolate and slowly whisk. Add the egg yolk and whisk until fully incorporated.
3
Combine egg whites, salt, and cream of tartar in large mixing bowl or bowl of a stand mixer. Whip on medium speed until they reach medium peak stage. Increase speed to high and gradually add sugar in a slow, steady stream, and whip until egg whites are firm and glossy.
4
Using a large rubber spatula, add 1/3 of whites to chocolate mixture and gently whisk to combine and lighten. Gently fold in remaining 2/3 egg whites until there are no streaks. Portion into individual servings or a large bowl. Chill for 45 minutes before serving for peak texture, or up to two days.
