📝 Ingredients

Chocolate Mousse

4 oz (115 g) sugar-free dark chocolate, chopped

½ cup heavy whipping cream
2 tbsp powdered monk fruit sweetener or erythritol
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
Pinch of sea salt

Optional Garnishes

Fresh raspberries
Sugar-free dark chocolate shavings
Unsweetened whipped cream
Cocoa powder for dusting
Fresh mint leaves

Note: Choose a high-quality sugar-free dark chocolate with at least 70% cocoa for the richest flavor.

Directions

1.

Place the chopped sugar-free dark chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl.

Microwave on Medium Power in 20-second intervals, stirring after each interval until smooth.

Allow it to cool slightly.

2.

In a large bowl, whisk together:

Greek yogurt
Monk fruit sweetener
Cocoa powder
Vanilla extract
Sea salt

Mix until smooth.

3.

Gradually stir the melted chocolate into the yogurt mixture until fully combined.

Texture cue: The mixture should be glossy and lump-free.

4.

In another bowl, whip the heavy cream using an electric mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form.

Avoid overwhipping.

5.

Using a silicone spatula, gently fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture in three additions.

Texture cue: The mousse should become light and airy while remaining smooth.

6.

Divide the mousse evenly among serving glasses.

Smooth the tops with the back of a spoon.

7.

Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.

The mousse should become firm while maintaining a creamy texture.

8.

Garnish with fresh raspberries, chocolate shavings, whipped cream, or a light dusting of cocoa powder before serving.

Diabetic-friendly tip: Sprinkle a few chopped walnuts or almonds on top for extra crunch, healthy fats, and protein.
