Dinner Party Dessert

I don't usually make very good desserts, so I decided to use an exact recipe I found online. Pots de Creme is kind of like a chocolate-coffee mousse thing; I'm reluctant to call it pots de creme or a
mousse, however, because pots de creme is a French custard that usually requires baking, and mousse is cooked before being cooled. However, this recipe did not call for any cooking at all, only preparing and cooling.

I loved these because I very easily made them Friday night, refrigerated them, and then topped with whipped cream and served in about 2 minutes. Serving them was fun, because I placed the dessert in wine and champagne glasses. This is one recipe I intend to hang onto.
In my initial test run, I put them in tea cups, which came
out to be a really cute way of serving the dessert.
