Ingredients

1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pinch of salt
1 cup fresh raspberries (plus extra for garnish)
2 tablespoons sweetener (honey, maple syrup, or stevia)
4 serving cups for presentation
Instructions
-
Melt the Chocolate:
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate chips in 30-second increments, stirring between each until smooth. Let the chocolate cool slightly. -
Whip the Cream:
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream using a hand mixer until soft peaks form. -
Combine Ingredients:
Once the chocolate has cooled to room temperature, gently fold it into the whipped cream along with vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. Be careful not to deflate the whipped cream. -
Prepare the Raspberries:
Mash half of the raspberries in a small bowl and mix with sweetener until slightly chunky. -
Layer the Cups:
In each serving cup, layer the mousse and mashed raspberries, finishing with a layer of mousse on top. -
Chill:
Cover and refrigerate for at least 1-2 hours to allow the mousse to set and the flavors to meld. -
Garnish:
Before serving, top with fresh raspberries and a dollop of whipped cream if desired.
Notes
Flavored Mousse: Add espresso powder for a mocha twist.
Nutty Texture: Add crushed pistachios or almonds between layers for added crunch.
Different Fruits: Swap raspberries for strawberries, blueberries, or other fruits based on availability.
