Whisk the egg over a hot water bath until thick and creamy. Slowly fold in the couverture. Warm the Amaretto and almond extract in a small pan, squeeze out the gelatine, dissolve in the liquid and stir into the couverture-egg mixture. Leave to set slightly in the fridge for 10-15 minutes.

Whip the cream to soft peaks. Whisk the egg whites, gradually adding the sugar, until the meringue is creamy and firm. Fold first the cream, then the meringue into the set cream. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Carefully fold the soaked amaretti along with their liquid into the mousse using a spatula. Refrigerate for 3-4 hours.
