Coffee lovers gather round
Coffee mousse recipe
Ooooh, that's going on the dinner party menu. As well as the weekend self indulgence menu.
Fits beautifully with Jennifer from 2 Fat Ladies' advice to use instant coffee granules rather than a shot of coffee when making a coffee cake or coffee icing. I've never forgotten that, as it really really works. And doesn't stuff up the liquid balance when baking a cake.
And, moreover, it's got cheese in it so it's got to be healthy, right?
Oh yeah for sure.
Man that's a lot of words for a very short recipe. Instant coffee powder? Wouldn't that be much better with a shot of actual espresso?
@Nath @CEOofmyhouse56 would taste way better but the water content would make it much harder to get the whipped cream to stay stiff
Maybe. I'd probably use instant in a bit of hot water to dissolve first then mix it altogether.
