Chocolate Mousse 5 Minutes, No Baking
🛒 What You’ll Need
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream (cold) ☁️
- 3 tbsp Unsweetened cocoa powder 🍫
- ¼ cup Powdered sugar (or keto-friendly sweetener) ☁️
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract 🍦
- Optional: A handful of chocolate chips for that perfect topping crunch! 🍫🎯
👩🍳 Instructions
- Prep the Cream: Pour your cold heavy whipping cream into a large chilled bowl. 🥣❄️
- Sift the Dry: Add the cocoa powder and powdered sugar. Sifting them helps ensure your mousse is perfectly smooth and lump-free! 🌪️✨
- The Fluffy Whip: Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, beat the mixture on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form. ⏲️📈 This usually takes about 2–3 minutes! 🌬️
- Final Flavor: Fold in the vanilla extract gently so you don’t lose that airy volume. 🍦🤝
- Serve: Spoon the mousse into individual serving dishes or a small container as seen in the photo! 🥄📐
- The Perfect Garnish: Top with a generous sprinkle of chocolate chips for a beautiful finish! 🍫🤤✨
- Enjoy: Dig in immediately for a soft texture, or chill in the fridge for 30 minutes for a firmer, more set mousse! 🍽️😋🧤✨
🔥 Pro Tips:
- The “Cold” Secret: For the fastest results and highest volume, make sure your bowl and beaters are chilled in the freezer for 10 minutes before you start! ❄️🛡️💎
- Mix It Up: Want a “Mocha” twist? Add ½ teaspoon of espresso powder to the mix to deepen that rich chocolate flavor! ☕️🎯✨
