Instructions
  1. Chill a mixing bowl and electric mixer attachments. Pour the heavy cream into the bowl and beat on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, about 3–4 minutes.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine the milk, cooled espresso, confectioners' sugar, and melted dark chocolate. Whisk together for about 2–3 minutes until smooth.
  3. Gently fold the whipped cream into the coffee-chocolate mixture using a spatula until no streaks remain visible.
  4. Transfer the mousse mixture into serving containers, smooth the tops, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.
