Creamy Coffee Mousse taken by peachpurple
I have always mistaken mousse for mouse.
Mousse should be pronounce as “moose”, not the little
rodent.
Anyway, I saw a Creamy Coffee Mousse displayed in a
bakery shop, while I was on the way to the supermarket to do some grocery shopping.
The picture of that coffee mousse kept lingering in my
mind, which means I just had t have it today at all cost.
Unfortunately I was unable to keep my promise as I had to
rush back home to prepare dinner.
Finally, after I had finished preparing dinner, I reached out
for my old recipe book, flip through the pages until I
caught sight of the Creamy Coffee Mousse I was looking
for.
I took out the ingredients, set of making it , chill it for
an hour before I indulge myself into this awesome
Creamy Coffee Mousse while my kids were asleep.
Honestly, this mousse ( not mouse ) is really, really
awesome, taste delicious like an ice-cream mix with jellies.
It is worth to try out to satisfy my addiction to mousse.
Afterall, I managed to make 6 cups of coffee mousse to
share with my kids in the morning.
Sure to be delighted!

Any mousse is my favourite including pineapple. I have tried that and I have enjoyed it. Coffee mousse is the favourite of many but since I do not take coffee I miss it badly.
@peachpurple I love coffee mousse but have never made it myself. Perhaps if I can find the fromage frais, I will try your recipe. Thanks, Peachy!
That looks great. How nice to be kitchen expert like you peach.Not all are gifted.Congrats.
I think creamy coffee is made thus as I made at home to drink self when I am working all alone in my room sitting on my room chair before me some papers to write sonnets and odes and songs. It is my favorite drink and prefer creamy coffee to tea or black or milk coffee.
Take the instant coffee powder and sugar in a cup. Add a tsp of water or milk and mix the coffee powder and sugar. Whisk the mixture rigorously with the help of spoon until it becomes light brown in color and creamy. Heat the milk and let it comes to boil. Pour the hot milk into coffee cream we prepare earlier
I think these are health benefits of creamy coffee
1. No Caffeine
2. Do NOT Load Your Coffee With Sugar
3. Choose a Quality Brand, Preferably Organic
4. Do Not Use Artificial Sweeteners
5. Add Some Cinnamon to Your Coffee
6. Avoid Low-Fat and Artificial Creamers
7. Add Some Cocoa to Your Coffee
8. Brew Your Coffee Using a Paper Filter
I used to put tons of sugar and milk in my coffee. Yuck.
Now I prefer my coffee black, organic, brewed with a paper filter.
It’s better that way… much better, just takes a while to get used to it.
