Mousse In Minutes Recipe - Cooking Index
| 1 1/3 cups | 315ml | Whipping cream |
| 2/3 cup | 131g / 4.6oz | Confectioner's sugar - sifted |
| 1/3 cup | 36g / 1.3oz | Dutch-process cocoa - sifted |
| 1 teaspoon | 5ml | Powdered instant coffee - (not granules) |
| 2 teaspoons | 10ml | Dark rum - (optional) |
| Confectioners' sugar or cocoa - for decoration |
1. Place cream, sugar, cocoa, instant coffee, and rum (if used) in large mixing bowl. Beat with electric mixer or whisk until cream forms soft peaks but is not stiff. Adjust flavoring to taste.
2. Spoon into small dessert dishes and refrigerate until serving. Decorate tops with a dusting of confectioners' sugar or cocoa, if desired, just before serving.
Mousse will fill 6 to 8 Truffle Cups (recipe included in this cookbook).
* Timesaver Tip: Recipe can be prepared up to a day ahead and stored, covered, in refrigerator.
Note: Dutch-process cocoa (or "Dutched cocoa'') has been treated with a mild alkali, such as baking soda, to neutralize the natural acids present. The alkali modifies the flavor and darkens the color. Dutch-process cocoa is available at supermarkets, but any unsweetened cocoa powder may be used.
