Steps:
- Heat half of the cream in a medium saucepan, over medium-high heat until bubbles begin to form around the edges.
- Place the chocolate and coffee into a large heatproof bowl. When the cream comes to the boil, pour it over the chocolate. Leave for a few minutes for the chocolate to start to melt, then whisk until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth, then stir in the remaining half of the cream. (Adding this cold cream helps cool the mixture down faster).
- Refrigerate until very well chilled - at least several hours or ideally overnight.If you're in a hurry you can place the bowl in the freezer to speed the cooling process. Just make sure you check and stir it regularly to make sure it doesn't actually freeze!
- Once the mousse mix is fully chilled, whip it with an electric hand mixer until stiff peaks form. If it seems like it's still a little too soft to pipe, you can refrigerate the bowl of mousse again for 10 minutes or so until it firms up some more.
- Transfer the mixture to a piping bag fitted with a large star or round piping tip and pipe into serving glasses. You can also just spoon the mousse into the glasses if you prefer.
- Put the instant coffee, caster sugar and boiling water into a bowl. Whip with an electric mixer (or use a hand whisk and a strong arm) until thick and foamy, and much lighter in colour.
- Put the cream, sugar and vanilla into a bowl and whip with an electric mixer until thickened, and soft peaks form when you lift up the mixer.
- Spoon the toppings onto each of the mousses. I found it handy to use an ice cream scoop, but a spoon will do the job just fine too.
- Serve the mousse immediately, or store, covered or in an airtight container, in the fridge. The mousse will keep well for several days, but the whipped coffee topping looks its best for up to a day, then it will start to slowly deflate. It still tastes the same, it just doesn't look so pretty.

FROZEN MOCHA MOUSSE
Steps:
- Break 3 ounces of the chocolate into pieces and place the pieces in a bowl set over a pan of simmering water. Whisk in the coffee liqueur, water and espresso granules and heat the mixture until the chocolate just melts. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
- Place the egg yolks and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and beat on medium speed for 3 minutes, until the mixture is the texture of mayonnaise. Add the cocoa powder and vanilla, and slowly pour in the cooled chocolate mixture.
- Put the egg whites and salt in the clean bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and beat on high speed until the whites form soft (not dry!) peaks. Fold them carefully into the chocolate mixture. In the same bowl (no need to clean it) beat the heavy cream until it forms soft peaks and fold it carefully into the chocolate mixture. Grate the remaining 4 ounces of chocolate and fold it into the mixture.
- Pour the mixture into a 10-cup souffle dish, cover with plastic wrap and freeze for several hours or overnight.
- For the whipped cream, place the heavy cream, sugar and vanilla in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, and whip on medium and then high speed until it reach stiff peaks. Spoon the whipped cream into a pastry bag fitted with a large star tip. Pipe the edge of the mousse with the whipped cream, and sprinkle extra chocolate shavings over the center of the mousse for decoration. Serve frozen.
MOCHA MOUSSE
Steps:
- In a large bowl, stir together the pudding mix with the milk and coffee until very thick. In another large bowl, beat the heavy cream with the sugar and vanilla using an electric hand mixer until soft peaks form. Reserve 1/4 cup for garnish. Stir one-third of the whipped cream into the pudding to lighten it. Fold the remaining whipped cream gently into the pudding. Spoon into dessert glasses and refrigerate until ready to serve. Mousse can be made ahead up to 4 hours in advance. When ready to serve, top each with a small dollop of the reserved whipped cream and sprinkle with the chocolate chips.

MOCHA MOUSSE
Steps:
- Coarsely chop chocolate and melt it with coffee in a double boiler over (not in) boiling water, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon to quicken melting and to prevent overheating. Remove from over boiling water. Let cool to room temperature.
- Meanwhile, whip cream until peaks hold their shape.
- In bowl of an electric mixer, whip egg yolks with 1/4 cup sugar 4 to 5 minutes, until very thick and pale (the consistency should be that of a heavy mayonnaise). Beat in vanilla.
- If egg whites are cooler than room temperature, warm by stirring briefly over boiling or hot water. In a clean, dry copper bowl, or in bowl of electric mixer, whip egg whites slowly until they start to foam. Increase speed to medium. When they are an opaque white add remaining 1/2 cup of sugar and salt and beat at medium speed until soft white peaks form.
- Stir egg yolks into chocolate mixture; both should be at room temperature or slightly warmer. If the chocolate is not, stir it briefly over boiling or hot water. Add Cognac, if desired.
- Fold in whipped cream, working quickly and being careful not to deflate the mixture. Fold in half the egg whites, then remaining egg whites.
- Turn mixture out into a serving bowl or ramekins and let cool in refrigerator at least 2 hours, preferably 4, before serving.

DARK CHOCOLATE MOCHA MOUSSE CAKE
Don't be put off by the number of steps needed to make this impressive-looking dessert. None of the steps themselves are hard, and once it's assembled, there is nothing to do but wait and slice. While delicious after an overnight refrigeration, even 5 days later it's still decadent, moist and incredibly chocolatey.

Steps:
- Make the cake: Preheat the oven to 350˚ F. Butter a metal 8-inch square cake pan. Line the bottom and sides of the pan with parchment paper; lightly butter the parchment. Combine the cocoa and espresso powders in a medium bowl. Heat the milk and butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until the milk is steaming and the butter melts. Whisk into the cocoa mixture; let cool to room temperature.
- Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. In a large bowl, beat the eggs and sugar with a mixer on medium-high speed until very pale, thick and pillowy, 5 to 8 minutes. Beat 30 to 45 more seconds to stabilize the egg foam.
- Reduce the mixer speed to low; beat in the cocoa mixture in 2 additions, alternating with the flour mixture in 2 additions. Beat just until the batter is smooth and no dry flour remains.
- Pour the batter into the cake pan and gently tap against the counter to eliminate any air bubbles. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 35 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes in the pan, then turn out the cake onto a rack. Peel off the parchment but let it rest gently on top of the cake while it cools completely. Wipe the cake pan clean and reserve.
- Make the ganache: Combine 1/2 cup heavy cream, 4 ounces chocolate and 1 tablespoon butter in a small saucepan. Gently cook over medium-low heat, stirring, until melted and smooth. Let cool.
- Make the mousse: Combine the remaining 4 tablespoons butter and 4 ounces chocolate in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring, until melted and smooth. Whisk in the cocoa powder until smooth. Let cool.
- Meanwhile, combine 1/4 cup heavy cream and the gelatin powder in a small microwave- safe bowl. Let stand until the gelatin absorbs the liquid, about 5 minutes, then microwave until melted, 20 to 30 seconds, whisking. Let cool, stirring occasionally.
- Combine the remaining 1 1/4 cups heavy cream, the sugar and espresso powder in a large bowl. Beat with a mixer on medium speed to dissolve the sugar, about 1 minute. Stream in the cooled gelatin mixture, then increase the speed to medium high and beat until the mixture is thick and stiff peaks form. Fold in the cooled chocolate mixture in 2 or 3 batches until the mousse is well blended.
- Assemble the cake: Line the reserved cake pan with 2 crisscrossed strips of parchment paper (this will help you lift out the finished cake). Carefully slice the cake horizontally into 3 equal layers. Lay the best layer cut-side up in the bottom of the pan and brush with some of the chocolate liqueur, if using. (Use a plate or small cutting board to move the layers; if your top cake layer is domed, use it for the middle of the cake.) Evenly spread half of the mousse on top with an offset spatula, all the way to the edges. Top with a second cake layer. Brush again with chocolate liqueur, then spread half of the ganache evenly on top. Add the final cake layer, cut-side up, and brush with the remaining liqueur. Top with the remaining mousse and ganache. (The assembled cake should fill the pan.)
- Refrigerate the cake until the top is set, about 30 minutes, then wrap the whole cake pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight to set completely.
- Lift the cake out of the pan using the parchment pieces and transfer to a cutting board. Using a hot, dry serrated knife, slice the cake, wiping the knife in between cuts for clean edges.
