Ingredients Used to Make 3 Ingredient Chocolate Mousse
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream: This is what makes your mousse light, fluffy, and oh-so-creamy.
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips (semi-sweet or dark): The star of the show, bringing that deep, rich chocolate flavor.
- 1 tablespoon sugar: Just a touch to sweeten things up and balance the bitterness of the chocolate.
How to Make 3 Ingredient Chocolate Mousse
- Melt the Chocolate: Start by melting the chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water or in the microwave in short bursts. Stir until smooth, then let it cool slightly.
- Whip the Cream: In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream and sugar together until you get soft peaks. This means the cream should be fluffy but still hold its shape.
- Fold in the Chocolate: Gently fold the melted chocolate into the whipped cream, being careful not to deflate the mixture. Keep folding until everything is well combined and smooth.
- Chill and Serve: Spoon the mousse into serving glasses or bowls, then chill in the fridge for at least 1 hour to set. Once chilled, it’s ready to serve—top with some extra whipped cream or a sprinkle of cocoa powder if you’re feeling fancy!
And that’s it – your 3 Ingredient Chocolate Mousse is ready to enjoy! It’s rich, smooth, and perfectly chocolatey. Whether you’re whipping this up for a special occasion or just because it’s a dessert that’s guaranteed to satisfy your sweet tooth.
And if you want to make more magic from chocolate, Festive Cake Pops for Thanksgiving can be your next one.
