How to Make Fluffy Coffee Mousse

In a medium bowl, beat the heavy cream with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the instant coffee granules, sugar, and vanilla extract until the coffee is completely dissolved.
Gently fold the coffee mixture into the whipped cream until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Divide the mousse into individual serving glasses or dessert dishes.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the mousse to set completely and develop its full flavor.
Before serving, garnish with cocoa powder, chocolate shavings, or whipped cream (optional).
