Ingredients
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 1/3 cup cocoa powder (or cacao powder)
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar or powdered monkfruit (or maple syrup)
- Optional: chocolate for hard shell
Step 1: Prepare the Chocolate Mousse
Start by blending together cottage cheese, cocoa powder, and your chosen sweetener in a blender or food processor.
Blend until the mixture is smooth and has a thin consistency.
This will create a creamy mousse base.
Step 2: Freeze the Mousse
Pour the blended mousse into a dish suitable for freezing.
Place it in the freezer for 1-2 hours, stirring once halfway through the freezing time.
This will help achieve a uniform texture and prevent ice crystals from forming.
Step 3: Make the Chocolate Shell
While the mousse is freezing, prepare the chocolate shell.
Melt your chosen chocolate in the microwave, stirring every 10 seconds to ensure it melts evenly and does not burn.
Continue until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
Step 4: Assemble and Serve
Once the mousse has set in the freezer, take it out and pour the melted chocolate on top of the mousse.
Sprinkle with sea salt for an added flavor contrast.
Enjoy your delicious chocolate mousse with a rich chocolate shell!
