Eating chocolate mousse is honestly like eating a beautiful chocolate cloud. It’s rich, smooth, and airy. A lot of people never think to make mousse because they assume that it’s difficult, but I’m going to give you guys the easiest TWO ingredient recipe that will blow any dinner guest away. To make it even more fancy, I’ll also be showing you how to make a chocolate bowl! If you want another idea for a dessert dish that will impress your guests, check out this White Chocolate Cheesecake with Raspberry Cups recipe.

The chocolate cups to hold the mousse are honestly so easy to make, and are aesthetic, impressive, and tasty! This is a fun opportunity to be creative with these cups. I added white chocolate, raspberry, and mint, but you can run with this recipe however you like!

Instructions:

  1. Divide your whipping cream into two measuring cups so that there is 450 ml in one container, and 150 ml in another.
  2. Pour the 150 ml over the dark chocolate. Microwave for 30 second intervals, and stir in between. Set aside so that it can cool.

  5. Take the sphere mold out of the fridge. Place a tablespoon of dark chocolate into the sphere mold. Use your spoon to run the chocolate up the walls of the mold. Do this for all the spheres. Run a knife along the top to clean up the top of the mold. Transfer to the fridge to set.
