Love chocolate mousse? You simply have to try this 2 ingredient chocolate mousse! I like to call it my "cheats mousse".

All you need is some cream and chocolate and within minutes you'll have a deliciously smooth and fluffy mousse that tastes just like the real deal!

There's no egg which is wonderful for those with egg intolerances, pregnant women or anyone who doesn't love the sound of raw egg in a dessert.

Anyone can make this recipe - it truly is that easy! And once you try it, I bet you'll be want to make it again and again.

TOP TIPS

  • Use whatever chocolate you like - milk, dark or white chocolate. I like to use Cadbury milk chocolate melts.
  • Don't whip the cream any further once you've added the chocolate. Fold the chocolate in by hand with a spatula.
  • You'll get 6-8 individual serves of mousse with this recipe, depending on how big the glasses are you are using.
  • You can serve these immediately but they won't be as thick. They only need an hour or so in the fridge to firm right up.
  • Feel free to halve this recipe - I usually only make that much which is great if only making for a few!
