Ingredients
  

For the mousse
  • 1 dl strong cold black coffee (freshly brewed and cooled, or use iced coffee)
  • 1 tbsp instant coffee granules
  • 1 tbsp sugar or sweetener of choice adjust to taste
  • 2 tbsp mascarpone cheese or Greek yogurt use Greek yogurt for a lighter version
  • Cocoa powder, for dusting optional

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a small bowl or glass, combine the coffee, instant coffee granules, and sugar. Stir until the sugar and coffee granules dissolve completely.
Whipping
  1. Add the mascarpone (or Greek yogurt) to the mixture and whisk with a spoon or fork until smooth, light, and slightly fluffy. This takes about 30 seconds.
  2. For an extra airy texture, whip for another 20–30 seconds with a mini frother or electric whisk.
Serving
  1. Spoon into a serving glass or espresso cup. Dust with cocoa powder for that café-style finish.
  2. Serve immediately and savor every bite!

Notes

Best served immediately, but you can chill for up to 2 hours if you want it colder. Not freezer-friendly due to dairy separation. For a thicker mousse, use whipped cream cheese or heavy cream.
