Someone should make this and give me a fully detailed report (I'm too lazy):
Coffee Fluff
Makes about four cups
4 tablespoons good ground coffee
2 cups water
1/4 cup light brown sugar
Pinch salt
2 envelopes gelatin
2 cups heavy whipping cream
3 tablespoons good rum or cognac (optional)
1 teaspoon vanilla
Chocolate shavings and curls
Brew the coffee with the water using a French press. Put in a small bowl or a glass measuring cup. Stir in the sugar and pinch of salt and sprinkle the gelatin over top. Let it soften for a few minutes then whisk vigorously until gelatin is thoroughly dissolved. Refrigerate until it is set - about two hours.
Add the liquor, vanilla and a pinch of the salt to the cream. Whip the cream until it forms soft peaks. Remove the cream to a separate bowl, and whip the coffee gelatin, quite firm by this point, until it is frothy and creamy. It will look like a thick dark mocha espresso drink, but still with tiny flecks of brown coffee jelly. Stir this frothed coffee jelly and the cream together.
Spoon into a mold or individual cups and refrigerate again until set - at least an hour. It will still be quite soft and creamy, like a refrigerator version of ice cream.
