Directions
Step 1
In a small bowl, combine the instant coffee granules and hot water. Stir until the coffee granules are fully dissolved. Let the mixture cool to room temperature.

Step 5
Using an electric hand mixer or a stand mixer with the whisk attachment, whip the mixture on medium speed until soft peaks form.
