French Vanilla Coffee Mousse

From Southern Lady Magazine Jan/Feb 2008. Preparation time does not include chilling. Original recipe said it made 6 servings, but it is so rich reviewers have suggested that it makes more servings. I changed to say 10 servings

• Ready In: 30 mins
• Serves: 10

Ingredients

• 3  cups heavy whipping cream, divided
• 2  tablespoons  french vanilla instant coffee
• 1 1⁄2 cups  semisweet chocolate, chopped
• 1 (3 ounce)  milk chocolate candy bars, chopped
• 1⁄2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 3⁄4 cup sugar

Directions

1. In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup cream and coffee. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat; remove from heat.
2. In a medium bowl, combine chocolates. Through a fine-mesh strainer, strain cream mixture over chocolates; stir until chocolates are melted.
3. In a medium bowl, beat remaining 2 cups cream and vanilla at high speed with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar, beating until stiff peaks form. Fold whipped cream mixture into chocolate mixture. Cover and chill. Chilling can take up to 4 hours.
