Ingredients

Scale

Chocolate Mousse

  • 1 cup (227g) heavy cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon King Arthur Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup (84g) King Arthur Quick-and-Easy Chocolate Mousse Mix

Instructions

  1. Combine Cream and Vanilla: In a large bowl, stir together the heavy cream and pure vanilla extract until evenly mixed.
  2. Whip Cream and Sugar: Add granulated sugar to the bowl and whip the mixture on high speed until medium peaks form, creating a light and fluffy texture.
  3. Incorporate Chocolate Mousse Mix: Gently fold in the King Arthur Quick-and-Easy Chocolate Mousse Mix, stirring just until fully incorporated without deflating the whipped cream.
  4. Chill: Cover the bowl and refrigerate the mousse until ready to serve. The mousse will keep well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Notes

  • Use cold heavy cream for better whipping results.
  • Be careful not to overwhip the cream to avoid turning it into butter.
  • Gently folding the chocolate mix ensures the mousse remains light and airy.
  • For an extra touch, garnish with fresh berries or a sprinkle of cocoa powder before serving.
  • Store covered in the fridge and consume within 3 days for optimal freshness.
