- For the Orange Mousse:.
- In a double boiler whisk together egg whites and sugar, until sugar is dissolved and the mixture is hot.
- Using a mixer, beat egg mixture until soft peaks form (this is now considered a meringue).
- Whip the heavy cream.
- Fold the concentrated orange into the meringue, and then fold in whipped heavy cream.
- Top a pancake with mousse, and repeat layers twice more so that each serving includes three pancakes.
