Ingredients
- 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1.5 cups Heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Whipped cream
- 2 tablespoons Chocolate shavings or sprinkles
Directions
Step 1
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in 20-second intervals, stirring after each interval until smooth. Let the melted chocolate cool slightly.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, pour the heavy whipping cream and add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract.
Step 3
Using a hand mixer or a stand mixer, whip the cream mixture on medium-high speed until soft peaks form. This will take about 3-5 minutes.
Step 4
Gently fold the cooled melted chocolate into the whipped cream mixture. Be careful not to overmix; fold until the color is uniform and the mousse is smooth.
Step 5
Spoon the mousse into small serving cups or bowls. Smooth the tops with the back of a spoon.
Step 6
Top each serving with a dollop of whipped cream and sprinkle with chocolate shavings or sprinkles for decoration.
Step 7
Chill the mousse in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving to allow it to set properly.
Step 8
Serve cold and watch the kids enjoy their delicious, homemade chocolate mousse!
