The Best Recipe For Coffee Mousse Cups

This coffee mousse recipe is a deliciously sophisticated dessert perfect for the end of a candlelight dinner for two. It's great for both chocolate-lovers and those not so fond of the treat, as it can be dressed up with chocolate sauce or served alone in all its coffee-flavored glory.

Ingredients

2 cups evaporated milk
2/3 cup strong coffee
2/3 cup brown sugar
3 egg yolks
1 envelope unflavored gelatin (softened in 3 tablespoons cold water)
1 1/2 cups heavy cream

Steps to Make It

In a medium saucepan, combine the evaporated milk and coffee; cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until it just starts steaming. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and brown sugar.
Add 1/2 cup of the hot milk to the egg mixture, whisking constantly, until the mixture is thoroughly combined. Add the warm egg-milk blend back into the hot milk in the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture reaches 165 F on a digital candy thermometer. Remove from the heat and stir in the softened gelatin. Chill the coffee custard thoroughly.
Beat the 1 1/2 cups of cream in a separate bowl until stiff peaks form. Thoroughly stir ½ cup of the whipped cream into the chilled custard, and then gently fold in the remaining cream. The coffee mousse is ready when the custard is thoroughly incorporated into the whipped cream and no marbling shows. Serve the mousse chilled.
