Melt the Chocolate
Chop your dark chocolate into small pieces and melt it gently using a heat-safe bowl. Stir until smooth and glossy. Let it cool slightly—you want warm, not hot.
Whip the Cream
Pour the heavy cream into a bowl and whip it until soft peaks form. You’re looking for fluffy, cloud-like vibes, not stiff butter territory.
Sweeten the Deal
Add powdered sugar to the whipped cream and gently mix it in. Keep things light and airy—no aggressive stirring.
Fold It All Together
Slowly fold the melted chocolate into the whipped cream. Use a gentle hand and a spatula. You want streak-free mousse, not deflated sadness.
Chill
Spoon the mousse into serving glasses and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. This helps it set into that perfect silky texture.
That’s it. You just made chocolate mousse. Casual.
