Mocha Coffee Jelly Recipe by Yummy.ph

On September 20, we had our house blessing at Katipunan so my mom assigned me with the desserts. I made two desserts, first was the pizzookie a la mode (cookie pizza with ice cream; on the left side of the picture) and the second was the mocha coffee jelly (on the right side of the picture.) Here is the recipe of the coffee jelly which I got from Yummy.ph, hope you guys can do it too!

Mocha Coffee Jelly

NOTE: If coffee-flavored gelatin is available, grab that box to make this recipe even easier than it is.

Serves 4 to 6
Prep Time 25 minutes
Cooking Time 20 minutes

WHAT YOU NEED
For the coffee jelly:
2 teaspoons instant coffee
2 cups hot water
1 tablespoon sugar
3 tablespoons unflavored gelatin

For the mocha mousse:
1 teaspoon instant coffee
1/2 cup hot water
1/2 cup chopped semisweet chocolate
2 tablespoons butter
3 egg yolks
1/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 cups whipped cream
1/2 teaspoon coffee extract (optional)

WHAT TO DO
1. Prepare the coffee jelly: Dissolve coffee in hot water. Add sugar and gelatin. Cook over medium heat until boiling. Pour into a 9-inch square pan. Cool then let chill until set. Cut into cubes.
2. Prepare the mousse: Dissolve coffee in the hot water. Set aside.
3. Melt chocolate in a double boiler. Remove from heat and add butter and half of the coffee mixture. Blend well. Cool.
4. In a saucepan, whisk egg yolks with sugar and remaining coffee mixture. Cook over low heat for about 1 to 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and add coffee extract.
5. Blend in melted chocolate. Fold in the whipped cream.
6. To assemble: Put cubed coffee jelly in dessert cups or glasses. Top with mocha mousse. Chill until set. Before serving, top with more whipped cream and chocolate shavings or cocoa powder.

TIP: To shorten prep time, you can pour the coffee jelly mixture into the serving glasses and let it sit there. Top with mousse and whipped cream.
