Dessert in 5 minutes! No oven required! It melts in your mouth. You’ll be amazed! Super tasty!

Alright, let’s whip up a super-fast, no-bake dessert that will truly melt in your mouth! Here’s a recipe for a creamy, chocolatey treat that’s ready in minutes:

5-Minute Chocolate Mousse Cups

Ingredients:

• 1 cup heavy cream (very cold)
• 1/2 cup chocolate chips (milk, dark, or semi-sweet)
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Optional toppings: berries, chocolate shavings, whipped cream

Instructions:

1. Melt the Chocolate:
   • Place the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl.
   • Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until melted and smooth.
2. Whip the Cream:
   • In a separate large bowl, pour the very cold heavy cream.
   • Using an electric mixer (handheld or stand mixer), whip the cream until soft peaks begin to form.
   • Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, and continue to whip until stiff peaks form.
3. Combine and Fold:
   • Gently fold the melted chocolate into the whipped cream using a spatula. Be sure to fold, and not stir, to keep the mix light and airy.
4. Assemble and Chill (Optional):
   • Divide the chocolate mousse into individual serving cups or glasses.
   • For a firmer texture, chill in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes. However, it is ready to eat right away.
   • Top with your favorite toppings, such as fresh berries, chocolate shavings, or a dollop of whipped cream.
5. Enjoy!
