Instructions

1. Soak the gelatin sheets in cold water for 5 to 10 minutes to soften.
2. Beat the egg whites in a large bowl with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
3. In a small saucepan, combine 40 ml brewed coffee and the sugar. Heat, stirring constantly, until it reaches 118°C (244°F).
4. With the mixer running, pour the hot syrup slowly into the egg whites. Keep beating until thick, glossy and cooled to room temperature.
5. In another saucepan, heat 30 ml cream with the instant coffee. When it boils, take it off the heat and stir in the squeezed gelatin until dissolved. Let it cool slightly.
6. In a large bowl, beat the mascarpone with 170 ml cold cream until smooth and thick.
7. Mix the cooled gelatin into the mascarpone until fully combined.
8. Fold the meringue in gently with a spatula, working from the bottom up, to keep the mousse airy.
9. Pipe or spoon the mousse into individual serving glasses.
10. Chill for at least 2 hours until set.
11. Just before serving, dust with unsweetened cocoa powder.
