Decadent Chocolate Mousse

1. Whip the Cream

Start by whipping the heavy cream in a medium chilled bowl using a whisk or fork until it reaches a fluffy, whipped consistency. It's essential to keep the cream cold, so if necessary, refrigerate the bowl briefly during this process. This step ensures a light and airy mousse.

2. Beat the Mixture

Next, beat the room-temperature butter, unsweetened cocoa powder, cream cheese, and Swerve natural sweetener in a separate medium bowl with a hand mixer. Continue beating until the mixture is smooth and thoroughly combined. The smoothness of this mixture is key to the mousse's texture, so take your time to ensure it's perfectly blended.

3. Fold in the Whipped Cream

Now, gently fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture using a rubber scraper. Folding, rather than stirring, helps maintain the airy texture of your mousse. You'll know it's ready when the mixture is light and fluffy, with no visible streaks.

4. Chill and Serve

Divide the mousse evenly between two dessert bowls. Cover the bowls and refrigerate for at least one hour to let the flavors meld and the mousse set. This decadent chocolate mousse is now ready to be enjoyed. Its rich, creamy texture is the perfect indulgence for any chocolate lover.
