When a sweet craving hits, you'll have this chocolate mousse ready in no time. No need to pre-whip the heavy cream - just throw everything into a bowl and mix! Use any keto-friendly granular sweetener that measures like sugar.
To begin with this recipe, we have to first prepare a few components. You can have chocolate mousse using 5 ingredients and 3 steps. Here is how you cook that.
The ingredients needed to make Chocolate Mousse:
- Make ready 4 egg yolks
- Take 4 Tbsp. Sugar
- Prepare 2 cups heavy cream
- Make ready 8 oz. Bittersweet chocolate, melted
- Get 1 tsp. Vanilla
Chocolate mousse has very few ingredients so it's important to use the best quality chocolate — its flavor will shine through. I like semi-sweet chocolate but if you prefer your mousse with a darker chocolate flavor, use bittersweet. Remember, the higher the cacao percentage, the less sweet the chocolate. Chocolate Mousse = Whipped Cream + Easy Folding This easy chocolate mousse makes the most of its two ingredients by using the cream three different ways.
Steps to make Chocolate Mousse:
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together egg yolks, 2 Tbsp sugar, and 3/4 cup heavy cream. Cook over medium-low heat stirring until mixture coats the back of a spoon (3-4 minutes), do not boil. Remove from heat; whisk in melted chocolate and vanilla. Strain into a bowl and chill until cool.
- With an electric mixer, beat remaining 1 1/4 cups heavy cream with remaining 2 Tbsp sugar until stiff peaks form. Stir 1/3 of whipped cream into cooled custard mixture, then gently fold in the rest with a rubber spatula.
- Spoon into serving dishes (I used phillo dough cups and garnished with strawberry), chill covered, at least 30 minutes and up to 3 days. Bring to room temperature before serving.
You'll melt the chocolate with some of the cream to create a soft ganache, whip more cream to soft peaks for garnishing, and then whip the rest to medium peaks for the mousse. Fold in the whipped cream and vanilla extract. Set over a saucepan of gently simmering water (do not let bowl touch water). Cook, whisking constantly, until mixture is. Place chocolate in a large bowl set over a bain marie or in a double boiler at a low simmer.
