I’ve recently been collaborating with Detox Organics, a plant-based supplement that helps with eliminating toxins, boosting energy and lessening inflammation. I love working with any brands that promote healthy eating or living and love sharing that with you all!
For this recipe, I wanted to make something a little indulgent…a delicious chocolate mousse with a homemade whipped cream and raspberries!
Chocolate Mousse
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 4 large egg yolks
- 3 tablespoons sugar divided: 2 tablespoons + 1 tablespoon
- 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
- 4 ounces semisweet chocolate chips or chopped
- 1 scoop Detox Organics*
- 4 large egg whites
For whipped cream:
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 tablespoon confectioners sugar or regular sugar if you don't have!
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional toppings:
- Fresh raspberries
Instructions
-
Using an electric mixer, beat heavy cream in a bowl until stiff peaks form; cover and chill.
-
In a large metal bowl, combine egg yolks, salt and 2 tablespoons sugar. Place the bowl over a saucepan with simmering water (without letting the bowl touch the water). Whisk constantly, cooking for about one minute until the mixture has doubled in volume and lighter in color.
-
Remove bowl from the saucepan and add in the chocolate and Detox Organics, stirring until melted and fully combined.
-
Using a clean, dry metal bowl, beat egg whites with an electric mixer on medium speed until foamy. While still mixing, gradually beat in the remaining 1 tablespoon of sugar. Increasing the speed to high, beat until firm peaks form. Fold the egg whites gently into the chocolate mixture in two-parts. Add in the chilled, whipped cream.
-
Transfer the mousse into ramekins and chill for at least 2 hours or until firm.
