Bourbon Chocolate Mousse

Directions

1. 1
   Put all the chocolate squares in a large saucepan. Add the sugar, coffee, bourbon, and butter.

3. 3
   Whip the whipping cream and fold into the chocolate.
4. 4
   This can be placed in any shaped pan you like. I always use a loaf pan, but a small square (8x8) or round pan could be used as well. Line the pan with plastic wrap, then spoon in the mousse.
5. 5
   Cover, then place in the freezer for at least 8 hours.
6. 6
   Invert onto your serving plate.

   This year, I decorated it by snipping a live pink Asiatic lily and placing it on top. In other years, I've made a large Christmas bow with wire-rimmed ribbon, and I've also used a single rose with a bow tied around the stem. You could also just top it with fresh strawberries and whipping cream.
