Easy Friendly Mousse Recipe!

Here’s a simple and delicious mousse recipe that’s both easy and friendly for beginners:

Easy Chocolate Mousse

Ingredients:

• 200g (7 oz) semi-sweet or dark chocolate

• 1 cup (240 ml) heavy cream

• 1/4 cup (60 ml) milk

• 2 tbsp sugar (optional, depending on chocolate sweetness)

• 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions:

1. Melt the Chocolate: Break the chocolate into pieces and melt it in a heatproof bowl. You can do this by placing the bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler method), or in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring each time until fully melted. Let it cool slightly.

2. Whip the Cream: In a separate bowl, pour the heavy cream and whip it using a hand mixer or a whisk until soft peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip!

3. Combine Milk and Vanilla: In a small bowl, mix the milk, sugar (if using), and vanilla extract together until the sugar dissolves.

4. Mix Chocolate and Cream: Gently fold the slightly cooled melted chocolate into the whipped cream. Add the milk mixture to the whipped cream and chocolate, folding everything together until smooth and fluffy.

5. Chill: Spoon the mousse into individual serving dishes and chill in the fridge for at least 2 hours, or until set.

6. Serve and Enjoy: Garnish with a bit of grated chocolate, whipped cream, or fresh berries if you like, and enjoy!

This mousse is light, creamy, and perfect for a quick dessert! You can also try experimenting with different flavors by adding a bit of coffee or orange zest to the chocolate mixture.
