Recipe View To serve, gently unmold the gelatin (if using a mold) onto a serving plate. If in individual glasses, serve directly. Garnish with a generous dollop of sweetened whipped cream. (5 minutes)

For a richer flavor, try using espresso instead of regular brewed coffee.
If you don't have a mold, ramekins or small bowls work perfectly.
Adjust the amount of sugar to your preference, depending on the strength and bitterness of your coffee.
For a vegan option, use agar-agar powder instead of gelatin, following package instructions for substitution.
A sprinkle of cocoa powder or chocolate shavings on top of the whipped cream adds a lovely visual appeal and complements the coffee flavor.
