This 2 ingredient chocolate mousse is rich, airy, and smooth with no eggs, no cream, and no gelatin. Made with dark chocolate and milk, it sets into an easy no-bake chocolate dessert after chilling.
Add 200 g milk and 150 g dark chocolate to a saucepan. Heat over medium heat, stirring gently, until the chocolate is fully melted and the mixture is smooth.
Remove from the heat and let the chocolate mixture cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally so a skin does not form on top.
Once cooled, whisk the mixture with an electric mixer for 5–6 minutes, until it becomes lighter, airy, and mousse-like.
Spoon the mousse into serving glasses, refrigerate for 8 hours to set, then serve cold.
Notes
Cool It Fully: I always let the chocolate mixture cool completely before whisking because it helps the mousse become lighter and fluffier. Use Good Chocolate: Since this recipe only uses two ingredients, I like using dark chocolate with a rich flavor and smooth texture. Do Not Skip the Chill Time: The mousse keeps firming up in the fridge, so I always leave it overnight for the best texture. Store It Cold: Keep the mousse covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days so it stays smooth and creamy.
