Maple Mousse

3/4 cup plus 6 teaspoons maple syrup, divided
3 egg yolks, beaten
2 cups heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons chopped hazelnuts, toasted

In a small saucepan over medium heat, heat 3/4 cup syrup just until it simmers.
Reduce heat to low. Stir a small amount of hot syrup into egg yolks; return all
to the pan, stirring constantly. Cook and stir until mixture is thickened and
reaches 160°. Transfer to a large bowl; set bowl in ice water and stir for 2
minutes. Cool to room temperature. In a large mixing bowl, beat cream until
stiff peaks form. Gently fold into the syrup mixture. Spoon into dessert dishes.
Chill for at least 2 hours. Just before serving, drizzle with remaining syrup and
sprinkle with hazelnuts.

Yield: 6 servings.
