Ingredients

The following ingredients have 7 Servings
  • 7 oz Chocolate ((semi-sweet or dark))
  • 2 tbsp Butter
  • 1 cup Whipping cream
  • 2 tbsp Liquor ((optional))
  • ¼ tsp Coffee powder

Instruction

  • In a double boiler or heat-proof bowl over a saucepan, melt the chocolate and butter. Tip - Chocolate can seize if any steam gets into it. So, keep the heat on medium to low and stir as necessary.
  • Add the coffee powder, and liquor to the chocolate. Combine well. Set aside to cool slightly
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer with the whisk attachment, whip the whipping cream to stiff peaks.
  • Fold the chocolate into the whipping cream until you have no more white. The best way to do this is to add some whipping cream to the melted chocolate to temper it then, combine the two together. Tip - Make sure the chocolate is not hot otherwise it will seize into the whipped cream.
  • Divide the mousse evenly between 6 glasses.
  • Chill the mousse in the fridge for at least 2 hours - preferably 4 hours or overnight.
