Here’s a simple and delicious zero-carb chocolate mousse recipe for you to try!
Ingredients:
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder (make sure it’s pure and doesn’t have sugar)
- 1-2 tbsp sweetener of choice (such as stevia, monk fruit, or erythritol) – adjust to your sweetness preference
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt (optional)
Instructions:
-
Chill the Mixing Bowl and Whisk: For best results, place your mixing bowl and whisk in the freezer for about 10 minutes before you start. This will help the whipping cream whip up faster and hold its shape better.
-
Whip the Cream: Pour the heavy whipping cream into the chilled bowl and begin to whip using an electric mixer or a hand whisk. Whip until soft peaks form.
-
Add Cocoa Powder and Sweetener: Once the cream has reached soft peaks, sift in the cocoa powder to avoid clumps. Add the sweetener, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt if using.
-
Whip Until Stiff Peaks: Continue whipping until stiff peaks form. The mousse should be light, fluffy, and hold its shape when you lift the whisk.
-
Serve: Spoon the mousse into serving cups and chill for at least an hour before serving. You can also add some unsweetened dark chocolate shavings or a few raspberries on top as garnish for extra flair.
Enjoy your creamy, rich zero-carb chocolate mousse!
