Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons Casein Protein Powder (vanilla flavor)
• 1 cup Heavy Cream
• 2 tablespoons Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
• 3 tablespoons Erythritol Sweetener
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
• 1 teaspoon Gelatin Powder
• 2 tablespoons Cold Water
• 2 tablespoons Dark Chocolate (70% cocoa or higher, chopped)

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, sprinkle gelatin powder over cold water and let it sit for about 5 minutes to bloom.

Step 2

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the casein protein powder, unsweetened cocoa powder, and erythritol sweetener. Stir until the mixture is well blended.

Step 3

In a separate large mixing bowl, pour in the heavy cream and vanilla extract. Using an electric mixer on medium speed, whip the cream until it forms soft peaks.

Step 4

Gently fold the dry casein mixture into the whipped cream until combined, ensuring not to deflate the cream.

Step 5

Place the bloomed gelatin in a microwave-safe dish and heat it on low for about 10 seconds or until completely dissolved. Allow it to cool slightly.

Step 6

Slowly drizzle in the dissolved gelatin into the mousse mixture while gently folding it in to ensure even distribution.

Step 7

Carefully fold in the chopped dark chocolate until evenly incorporated throughout the mousse.

Step 8

Spoon the mousse evenly into 4 serving glasses or ramekins. Smooth the tops with a spatula.

Step 9

Chill the prepared mousse in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or until set and firm.

Step 10

Garnish with additional cocoa powder or chocolate shavings, if desired, before serving.
