Instructions

How to Make Sugar Free Chocolate Mousse

1. Chill the large mixing bowl in the refrigerator. You should place it in the refrigerator at least an hour before you plan to make the mousse.

2. Put the cold water in the small bowl. There should be enough room in the small bowl to add more water and stir without splashing the mix out of the bowl.

3. Sprinkle the gelatin onto the cold water. Do not stir. Let the mixture sit for 60 seconds.

4. Stir boiling water into the gelatin mix. Make sure all of the gelatin dissolves before you set the mixture aside.

5. Beat the sucralose sweetener, cocoa powder, salt, whipping cream and vanilla together in the chilled bowl. Use medium speed and be sure that you do not continue to beat the mixture after it has become stiff.

6. Beat in the gelatin mixture. Again, use the mixer as briefly as possible while making sure that the mousse is completely blended.

7. Spoon the mousse into decorative dessert dishes. Some people prefer to serve it in champagne or martini glasses. Any dish will do.

8. Refrigerate the mousse for at least 24 hours. This will cause it to set up completely and have a delightful, firm quality.
