How to Make French Vanilla Coffee Mousse
- In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup heavy cream and 1 cup freshly brewed strong coffee.
- Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- In a heatproof medium bowl, combine the 8 ounces of finely chopped bittersweet chocolate.
- Slowly pour the warm cream mixture through a fine-mesh strainer over the chocolate, ensuring all the chocolate is covered.
- Let stand for 2 minutes, then gently stir until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
- In a separate, clean, dry medium bowl, beat the remaining 2 cups heavy cream with an electric mixer on high speed until soft peaks form.
- Gradually add the 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the whipped cream mixture into the chocolate mixture in two additions, being careful not to deflate the whipped cream.
- Divide the mousse among 10 individual serving dishes or glasses.
- Cover and chill for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the mousse to set completely.
