Chef's Note
Keep in mind that the texture and flavor of chocolate mousse get even better as it ages. Ideally, I recommend preparing it two days in advance. Refrigerate the dessert coupes, placing a piece of parchment paper on top of each one. Although chocolate mousse is usually made with cream, we're using milk because of the richness of the Irish cream.
The Art of Entertaining
To add an elegant touch, serve the chocolate mousse in martini glasses or cocktail glasses bordered with dark chocolate shavings and white chocolate chips. You can also decorate the coupes with whipped cream or chocolate-dipped strawberries.
