Blender Chocolate Mousse

BLENDER CHOCOLATE MOUSSE

This weight-loss friendly chocolate mousse is made in a blender and takes very little time to make. Adapted from All Day I Dream About Food, it is a great alternative to our nutritious low-carb chocolate pudding recipe made with avocado. This is not a recipe that plugs into the weight-loss plan checklist, but it is perfect for maintenance or special occasions.

 

Blender Chocolate Mousse

 

INGREDIENTS

  • 1/2 cup organic whipping cream
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond or cashew milk
  • 1/4 cup Kerry Gold butter
  • 2 oz. high-quality, unsweetened chocolate bar (Ghirardelli), chopped (do not use a lesser quality chocolate or you won't have the fiber needed for the mousse to set)
  • 2 Tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup powdered Swerve
  • 1/2 tsp. espresso powder, optional (brings out the chocolate flavor nicely
  • 2 large pastured eggs, room temperature
  • (Great Lakes Gelatin - 1 tsp - see notes below!)

 

INSTRUCTIONS

In a small pan, combine cream, almond milk and butter. Bring to a full boil, then remove from heat.


In a blender, combine unsweetened chocolate, cocoa powder, Swerve and espresso powder. Pulse a few ties to combine. Add scalded cream mixture and blend until smooth.


Add eggs and blend again until smooth. Pour into dessert cups and chill at least one hour.


NOTE: This mousse is delicious – it’s not too dark and not too light of a chocolate flavor. The only problem I have had is that it can tend not to set as firm as a pudding should sometimes. The creator of the recipe never has this problem at all. I think it’s the brand of ingredients perhaps?


Give your recipe a try before you serve it to guests. If this happens, do one of two things – either freeze it and it will provide a wonderful “ice cream” dessert; or the next time you make it, add 1-2 tsp of Great Lakes Gelatin (it’s grass-fed).


It is totally worth making this mousse. You can err on the side of adding 1 tsp of gelatin on your first attempt, if you like. I, myself, will add it from now on.

  • I can’t begin to tell you how much appreciation I have for the Tanzar’s and this program. Truly a life changing decision when I invested in this program. Genesis is a very apt title but it’s also like a rebirth. I’m on my second life which is healthy, happy and pain free. I lost 85 lbs in 4 months, maybe less time. That is about 15 lbs more than my goal. So excited about the rest of my life!
