Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 8 oz Dark chocolate (225g), melted and slightly cooled
  • 2 cups Heavy cream (480ml), cold
  • 1/4 cup Powdered sugar (30g), optional, adjust to taste
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • Spatula

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Melt the dark chocolate and allow it to cool slightly before proceeding.
  2. In a large bowl, whip the cold heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks are formed.
  3. Gently fold the slightly cooled melted chocolate into the whipped cream until the mixture is fully combined, taking care not to deflate the airy texture.
  4. Divide the chocolate mousse into individual serving glasses or a single large bowl and refrigerate for at least 2-4 hours, or until it is completely set.

Notes

For best results, allow the mousse to chill in the refrigerator for at least 2-4 hours, or preferably overnight, to achieve the perfect firm yet airy texture. You can garnish with chocolate shavings, fresh berries, or a dollop of extra whipped cream for an elegant finish.
