Frozenespressomousse Recipes

Steps:

• Pour the espresso into 2 ice cube trays and freeze until solid, 3 to 4 hours.
• Combine the frozen espresso cubes, half-and-half, vodka, coffee liqueur, sugar and vanilla in a blender. Blend until smooth.
• Pour the mixture into chilled glasses and top with whipped cream if using. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• In 1-quart saucepan, stir together 2 tablespoons soymilk, the espresso powder and chocolate. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until chocolate is completely melted and mixture is well blended. Cool slightly.
• In medium bowl, beat 1 cup soymilk and the pudding mix with electric mixer on medium speed or wire whisk 1 to 2 minutes or until mixture is well blended and thickened.
• Stir melted chocolate mixture into pudding mixture. Fold in whipped topping. Spoon into individual dessert dishes; serve immediately or refrigerate until serving time. Store covered in refrigerator.

Steps:

• Cream together the egg yolks, sugar, espresso, and vanilla until light.
• Add the melted chocolate and mix well.
• Pour into a large bowl.
• Beat the egg whites separately until firm but not dry.
• Using a rubber spatula, gently fold the chocolate - egg mixture, egg whites, whipped cream, and grated chocolate together until no trace of white is left.
• Pour the mousse into one 8-cup soufflé dish, or 8 individual 1-cup ramekins.
• Sprinkle a little espresso on top.
• Freeze the soufflé dish for 4 hours, the ramekins for 3 ½ hours.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, sprinkle gelatin over 2 tablespoons water. In a medium bowl, whisk together egg yolks, granulated sugar, and a pinch of salt until pale, about 1 minute.
• In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup cream and espresso powder over medium until warm, stirring occasionally with a silicone spatula. Gradually whisk warm cream mixture into egg mixture until combined, then return to saucepan. Stirring constantly, cook over medium until mixture thickens, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and whisk in gelatin mixture. Press plastic wrap onto surface of espresso mixture and let cool completely (do not refrigerate), about 45 minutes.
• In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat 1 cup cream until soft peaks form. With a spatula, gently fold cream into espresso mixture. Divide among six 4-ounce containers. Cover and refrigerate until set, 1 hour (or up to 1 day). Before serving, whisk 1/2 cup cream and confectioners' sugar until soft peaks form. Top mousse with whipped cream and sprinkle with cocoa powder, if desired.

Steps:

• Pour the milk and heavy cream into a heavy-bottomed pot. On a cutting board, split the vanilla bean down the middle and, using the top of your knife, scrape all the seeds into the milk. Add the bean pod to the milk and bring the milk gently to a boil over medium heat, being careful not to scorch the milk or allow it to boil over. Lower the heat and simmer for 10 minutes, uncovered. Remove from the heat and allow the vanilla bean to steep in the milk for another 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in the bowl of an electric mixer, whip the egg yolks and sugar together at medium speed for 5 minutes. Remove the vanilla bean from the milk, then stir several tablespoons of the hot milk into the egg yolk-sugar mixture to temper the eggs.
• Fill a large bowl halfway with ice water. Return the pot of milk to the stove and, over low heat, add the egg yolk-sugar mixture in a slow, steady stream, stirring it in with a wooden spoon. Stir the coffee into the sauce with a wooden spoon and continue to cook for 7 to 8 minutes, stirring constantly, until the custard has thickened and coats the back of the spoon. Remove from the heat and cool completely by setting the bottom of the pot in ice water and stirring to release heat. Once cool, the sauce can be covered and refrigerated for up to 24 hours.
