Ingredients
Scale
Chocolate Mousse
- 1 cup (227g) heavy cream
- 1/2 teaspoon King Arthur Pure Vanilla Extract
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup (84g) King Arthur Quick-and-Easy Chocolate Mousse Mix
Instructions
- Mix Cream and Vanilla: Stir together the heavy cream and vanilla extract in a large bowl until well combined.
- Whip Cream and Sugar: Add granulated sugar to the mixture and whip on high speed using a mixer until medium peaks form, indicating soft yet stable peaks in the cream.
- Incorporate Chocolate Mousse Mix: Gently fold in the chocolate mousse mix using a spatula, stirring carefully until it is fully incorporated and the mousse has a smooth, fluffy texture.
- Chill the Mousse: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate the mousse until ready to serve. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days to maintain freshness.
Notes
- Use chilled heavy cream for best whipping results.
- Folding in the mousse mix gently prevents deflating the airy cream.
- You can garnish with fresh berries or shaved chocolate for extra flavor and presentation.
- If you don’t have King Arthur brand mousse mix, any quick chocolate mousse mix can be substituted.
- Be sure not to overwhip the cream as it can become grainy and start to turn into butter.
