Chocolate mousse with coffee
Description
The recipe won't take much time. It's best to use natural brewed coffee. Instant coffee will work too, of course, but the aroma and flavor will be less pronounced. Additionally, you can add a little alcohol to the mousse—such as brandy or cognac. Serve chilled.
