Description

Indulge in a guilt-free chocolate mousse made with Greek yogurt and dark chocolate, packed with protein and rich flavors.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Melt the chocolate: Place the dark chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl or a double boiler. Heat until melted, stirring gently to ensure a smooth consistency. Let it cool slightly.
  2. Mix the ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, cocoa powder, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Whisk together until creamy.
  3. Combine and whisk: Slowly pour the melted chocolate into the yogurt mixture. Whisk vigorously until the chocolate is fully incorporated.
  4. Spoon into dishes: Divide the mousse into individual serving dishes.
  5. Chill and enjoy: Refrigerate for at least 10 minutes to set the mousse slightly.

Notes

For added texture, consider folding in some whipped egg whites or whipped cream for an even airier mousse. Prepare a day in advance to enhance flavor.
