Want to impress your hot date without spending the entire day in the kitchen? This Easy Egg Free Chocolate Mousse Recipe is the solution. Decadent Chocolate Mousse made with only 3 ingredients!
I think it should be a requirement to indulge in a sinful Valentine’s Day Dessert. Ditch the predictable heart shaped box filled with chocolates. Replace it with this luxurious Valentine’s Day Dessert Recipe.
This Egg Free Chocolate Mousse Recipe is beyond easy! It involves melting chocolate in the microwave and turning on your stand mixer. Seriously, that is it.
I started looking around the internet for an easy chocolate mousse recipe. I soon realized that most chocolate mousse is made with eggs.
I have a sensitivity to eggs, so I started looking for easy egg-free chocolate mousse recipes. All of those recipes use unflavored gelatin. I cannot stand the taste of “unflavored” gelatin. Maybe I’m too picky!?!
That is when I decided to just experiment a little and see if I could make my own Easy Egg Free Chocolate Mousse Recipe. And well, it worked!
In fact, it more than just worked. This Chocolate Mousse is super simple and tastes amazing!
I started by melting some good quality milk chocolate chips in the microwave. I used Ghirardelli Chocolate because it is one of my favorites.
Next, I used my handy-dandy KitchenAid stand mixer with the wire whip attachment to whip the heavy cream until peaks formed. Add the slightly cooled melted chocolate, powdered sugar and whip it a little more.
Done. Say hello to your {should be illegal} AhhhMazing Chocolate Mousse!
While this Chocolate Mousse Recipe is unbelievably easy. That little chocolate heart garnish gave me some trouble. I’ve always read how simple chocolate garnishes are to make. Ummm, no. Not for me.
This is the only one that came out resembling a heart shape. The other garnish attempts looked more like miniature dog turds. That’s not romantic at all.
So if the heart garnish isn’t working for you, use chocolate sprinkles or grated chocolate instead.
