Ingredients

• 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
• 2 tablespoons instant coffee granules
• 0.25 cup boiling water
• 2 cups heavy cream
• 0.5 cup sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine the instant coffee granules with the boiling water, stirring until the coffee granules are completely dissolved. Set aside to cool.

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semisweet chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until smooth and fully melted. Let it cool slightly.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream and sugar. Using an electric mixer, beat on medium-high speed until soft peaks form.

Step 4

Stir the vanilla extract into the coffee mixture. Gently fold half of the coffee mixture into the whipped cream until combined.

Step 5

Divide the whipped cream mixture in half. In one half, fold in the melted chocolate until fully integrated to create the chocolate layer.

Step 6

In the other half of the whipped cream, gently fold in the cocoa powder until well combined.

Step 7

In serving glasses or bowls, layer the chocolate cream and coffee cream alternately, starting with chocolate and ending with a swirl of both layers on top. Use a butter knife to gently swirl the layers for a marbled effect.

Step 8

Refrigerate the mocha swirl desserts for at least 1 hour to set and develop flavors.

Step 9

Before serving, sift powdered sugar over the top as a garnish. Serve chilled.
