In a mixing bowl, whisk the egg whites with 1/4 cup of the sugar until stiff and glossy. Now, whisk the egg yolks into the chocolate while adding the Grand Marnier. Pour in the remaining sugar and continue whisking. Next, fold in the egg whites and mix until smooth. Finally, pour the chocolate mixture into the prepared ramekins.
