2‑ingredient chocolate mousse: A quick, luscious delight

This fluffy, light, and intense chocolate mousse is made with only two ingredients and a few moments. It's hard to resist and even harder to guess what it's made from. It's a must-have in any recipe collection.

This chocolate mousse is quick, easy to prepare, tastes fantastic, and has compelling ingredients. Dark chocolate and fruit puree are the two critical ingredients of this specialty, which together create one of my favourite desserts. It convincingly imitates a natural mousse that adults and children are fooled by.

This chocolate mousse tastes excellent and doesn't leave you feeling guilty. You can confidently add it to your diet because it's made from fruits and dark chocolate. Of course, the best choice would be dark chocolate with a high cocoa content. It's worth noting here, however, that this type of chocolate has the highest calorie content – dark chocolate with 60% cocoa contains about 516 calories in 100 grams. It's important to remember the invaluable properties of cocoa and dark chocolate, which we discussed HERE.

The other ingredient of the chocolate mousse is fruit puree. You can use apple puree, which provides sweet and slightly sour notes and will make the dessert lighter and fluffier. You can prepare such an apple puree from 2-3 stewed and mashed apples. Instead, you can also use bananas – such mousse will be "heavier" than apple mousse but will work just as well. It's best to use slightly browning fruits and blend them until smooth. After mixing the ingredients and spending a few moments in the refrigerator, the chocolate mousse acquires a firm consistency.

Ingredients:

      
• 100 grams of dark chocolate (1 bar),
• 130 grams of apple or banana puree.

Preparation:

1. Melt the chocolate in a water bath (try not to overheat it).
2. Mix the chocolate with the apple or banana puree, and transfer the ready mixture to a container lined with baking paper.
3. Place the chocolate mousse in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours.
