Craving chocolate mousse but want a healthier version? This simple recipe uses boiled eggs to create a rich, creamy texture without heavy cream. It's packed with protein, naturally sweetened and takes just a few minutes to prepare.
Ingredients:
2 hard-boiled eggs,
2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder,
2 tbsp honey or maple syrup,
2 tbsp milk (or any plant-based milk),
½ tsp vanilla extract,
a pinch of salt,
dark chocolate shavings or berries for garnish
Instructions
Peel the hard-boiled eggs and roughly chop them. Make sure they have cooled completely before using.
Place the boiled eggs, cocoa powder, honey, milk, vanilla extract and a pinch of salt into a blender or food processor.
Blend for 1-2 minutes until the mixture becomes silky smooth and mousse-like. Scrape down the sides if needed and blend again.
Taste the mousse and add a little more honey if you'd like it sweeter. If the mixture is too thick, add a splash of milk and blend again.
Transfer the mousse into serving bowls or glasses and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Chilling helps improve the texture and flavour.
Top with dark chocolate shavings, cocoa powder, fresh berries or chopped nuts before serving.
