3-Ingredient Double Chocolate Mousse

đź§ľ Ingredients

  • 200 g dark chocolate (good quality, ~60–70% cocoa)
  • 1½ cups cold heavy cream
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder (unsweetened)

👩‍🍳 Instructions

  1. Melt the chocolate
    Break into pieces and melt gently (microwave in short bursts or double boiler). Let it cool slightly—not hot.
  2. Whip the cream
    Beat cold heavy cream until soft peaks form (light and fluffy, not stiff).
  3. Combine
    • Fold half the whipped cream into the melted chocolate to lighten it
    • Gently fold in the remaining cream
    • Sift in cocoa powder and fold until smooth
  4. Chill
    Spoon into serving cups and refrigerate for 1–2 hours until set.

✨ Optional Toppings

  • Chocolate shavings
  • Fresh berries
  • Whipped cream
  • Crushed nuts

đź’ˇ Tips

  • Use good chocolate—it’s the main flavor
  • Don’t overmix or the mousse can lose its airy texture
  • If chocolate is too hot, it can deflate the cream—let it cool slightly first
