Steps:
- For the chocolate layer: Place the chocolate chips and cream in a small bowl. Place over a pan of barely simmering water and stir until the chocolate has melted and the mixture is smooth, about 5 minutes. Spoon the mixture into the bottom of 6 espresso cups. Refrigerate until set, about 20 minutes.
- For the jelly layer: Pour 1/2 cup water in a medium bowl. Sprinkle the gelatin on top and set aside for 5 minutes until softened. In a small saucepan, combine another 1/2 cup water, sugar, and espresso powder. Bring to a boil, whisking frequently, until the sugar has dissolved. Pour the espresso mixture over the gelatin and whisk until the gelatin has dissolved. Whisk in the coffee liqueur. Set aside to cool, about 15 minutes. Ladle the gelatin mixture over the chocolate layer. Refrigerate until set, about 1 1/2 hours.
- For the whipped cream: In a medium bowl, using an electric hand mixer, beat the cream on medium speed until thick. Add the vanilla and beat until the cream holds stiff peaks.
- Let the jellies stand at room temperature for 15 minutes. Dollop with whipped cream and serve.
CAPPUCCINO PANNA COTTA WITH CHOCOLATE SAUCE
Panna cotta is essentially milk-flavored Jell-O. My version tastes like a coffee milk shake! YUM! It's super cinchy to make but very impressive and a perfect DO-AHEAD. You can make this one day and serve it the next-it's almost unfair how easy it IS for the wow factor you get. Dress it up with a little chocolate Sauce, and voila, it's fancy!

Steps:
- FOR THE PANNA COTTA
- 1.In a small bowl of cool water, submerge the gelatin sheets to soften. They will go from stiff to soft, kind of like the texture of a giant contact lens. Feel one-it's SO cool!
- 2.In a small saucepan, combine the cream, sugar, and espresso powder. Split the vanilla bean lengthwise down one side, open it up, and scrape out the seeds with a paring knife. Add the seeds and the hull to the pan. Whisk to combine everything.
- 3.Bring the cream mixture to a boil and then immediately turn off the heat. Remove the softened gelatin sheets from the water and squeeze out the excess water. Add the gelatin sheets to the pan and whisk to combine.
- 4.Immediately ladle the cream mixture into four 6-ounce ramekins and refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours or
- overnight.
- FOR THE CHOCOLATE SAUCE
- 1.Fill a small saucepan with 1 inch of water and bring it to a boil (BTB).
- 2.In a medium heatproof bowl, combine the chocolate chips, heavy cream, butter and corn syrup. place the bowl on top of the pan of water (this is a double-boiler setup). Reduce the heat to a simmer. Stir until the chocolate has melted and all the ingredients are combined. Remove and use immediately or store in a warm place until ready to use.
- TO UNMOLD THE PANNA COTTA
- 1.Fill a small saucepan with 1 inch of water and bring to a boil, then turn off the heat. Run a paring knife around the outside edge of the panna cotta to loosen it. Set each ramekin in the saucepan for 10 seconds. Place a small serving plate on top of each ramekin and flip it over to unmold the panna cotta. If it doesn't release, put the ramekin in the water for a few seconds more and try again.
- 2.To serve, ladle a couple tablespoons of the chocolate sauce around the panna cotta and sprinkle with a few chocolate-covered espresso beans.

Steps:
- Pour 1/4 cup of milk into a small bowl, and sprinkle the gelatin on top. When the gelatin softens, after about 10 minutes, stir the two together until combined. Place a fine-mesh strainer over a large, spouted measuring cup or pitcher, and set aside. Meanwhile, add the remaining 1/4 cup milk, cream, sugar and salt to a large sauce pan, and whisk to dissolve the sugar. Bring just to a boil over medium-high heat, then turn the heat down to low, and add the espresso powder, stirring constantly until combined. With the cream gently simmering, whisk in the coffee extract and chopped chocolate, until completely melted and velvety-smooth. Remove from the heat, and whisk in the softened gelatin, stirring until completely dissolved. Carefully pour the mixture through the strainer to separate any lumpy bits, then divide among 4 ramekins or small serving dishes. Lightly cover and let cool to room-temperature, then refrigerate until fully set, about 3 hours. Serve chilled with fresh whipped cream and chocolate shavings. Can be made up to two days in advance.

Steps:
- Prepare the sauce:.
- With a whisk, whip the yolk and 1 tablespoon of sugar in a bowl until well combined.
- In a heavy non stick saucepan, mix together the milk, remaining sugar, and espresso granules and bring to a boil.
- Pour one-third of the milk mixture into the yolks, whisking constantly. Return the egg yolk mixture to the pan and cook over moderate heat, stirring constantly until thick enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon.
- Pour through a mesh strainer and cool to room temperature, then cover and chill.
- Prepare the gelatin:.
- Pour 1/2 cup of water into a medium bowl and sprinkle the gelatin on top.
- In a heavy 2 quart saucepan, whisk together the remaining 1 cup of water, heavy cream, sugar, and cocoa powder and bring just to a boil, stirring gently (the mixture will thicken and rise when it boils).
- Remove from heat and pour into the gelatin mixture, gently stirring to combine.
- Cool to room temperature and divide evenly into cups about 1/2 cup into each.
- Cover with plastic wrap and chill for at least 3 hours or until set and cool.
- You can serve this dessert directly from the cups or unmold it. If you choose to unmold the gelatin, grease the inside of the cups with vegetable oil before pouring the gelatin mixture inches To unmold, run a sharp knife against the sides of the mold to gently separate the filling. Invert a serving plate on top of the cup and invert both the plate and cup in one motion. Shake slightly to loosen if necessary and unmold. It may take a few tries and patience.
- Spoon chilled espresso sauce right over the dessert in the cup or around the unmolded gelatin.
