Step 1
Crush biscuits into fine crumbs in a bowl, then stir in melted butter until the mix resembles damp sand.
Step 2
Divide biscuit crumb mixture among 6 jars or glasses, pressing gently into the bottom of each as the base layer.
Step 3
Combine chopped chocolate and porter in a microwave-safe bowl, then microwave in 30-second pulses, stirring between each, until smooth.
Step 4
Let chocolate cool 2 minutes, then whisk in 0.75 cup heavy cream and vanilla until thick and mousse-like.
Step 5
Spoon chocolate mousse evenly over biscuit layer in each jar, then chill while you whip the remaining cream.
Step 6
Whip remaining 0.75 cup cream with sugar until soft peaks form, then dollop onto each cup and dust with cocoa powder.
