on Jul 17, 2020, Updated Aug 15, 2020 Despite the fancy french name, chocolate mousse is a super easy dessert. It is incredibly tasty, has a light and airy texture, while being rich and creamy all at the same time. We’ve developed a delicious eggless, chocolate mousse recipe for y’all. (Yes you read that right, it is delicious and it is absolutely EGGLESS!)
Use the right cream
To get that delightful airy texture, the french use egg whites. To make it eggless, we used whipped cream. The cream also helps us get that richness to complement the chocolate. For whipped cream, you can use heavy cream or whipping cream. If you are using heavy cream, make sure the milk fat content is equal to or more than 30%. Dairy-free whip toppings widely available in the Indian markets can also be used in this recipe.
Light and airy Eggless Chocolate Mousse
You must beat your whipping cream for 8 – 10 minutes. You can do this with a hand blender or a stand mixer with the whisk attachment. If you have neither, you can use a good old whisk as well, and consider it your workout for the day. Whip or beat your cream until it forms soft peaks. At this stage, it will hold its shape. This helps incorporate air into the cream which makes it light and airy. Tip: If you’re feeling gutsy, invert the bowl over your head once you are done whipping. Rightly whipped cream with soft peaks to stiff peaks, will remain in the bowl. If you haven’t done it right, I’m sorry but you need to shower!
