🛒 Ingredients

15 servings

15
  • 2 cans of heavy cream (about 400 ml)
  • 1 can of sweetened condensed milk (about 397 g)
  • 1 sachet of unflavored powdered gelatin (about 12 g)
  • 8 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder, or chocolate drink mix to taste

Directions

  1. 1

    Pour the heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, and cocoa into a blender.

  2. 2

    Blend for about 2 minutes until the mixture is smooth and even.

  3. 3

    Prepare the gelatin according to the package instructions, add it to the mixture, and blend for 30 seconds just to combine.

  4. 4

    Pour into a bowl or ramekins, cover, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours until the mousse is fully set.

💡 Chef's Tip

If the mousse is too soft, add a little more gelatin. For a deeper flavor, swap the drink mix for melted and cooled dark chocolate. Serve with chocolate shavings or fresh berries.
