Secretly Healthier Chocolate Mousse
- Yield 8 servings
Ingredients
Units
- 3 large eggs, separated into yolks and whites
- 3/4 cup plain non-fat greek yogurt (I used Chobani)
- 1/4 cup light brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons flour
- Pinch of fine sea salt
- 1 1/2 cups dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, whisk together egg yolks, Greek yogurt, brown sugar, flour, and sea salt. Place over low heat and cook, stirring constantly, for 5 minutes or until the mixture has thickened slightly.
- Remove saucepan from heat and allow to cool slightly, about 2 minutes. Add the chocolate chips and stir until they melt into the egg yolk mixture. Set aside to cool.
- In a standing mixer, whip egg whites to stiff peaks. Slowly drizzle in melted chocolate mixture, folding carefully as to not deflate the egg whites. Fold until homogenous.
- Pour mousse into 8 small ramekins, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours (up to 5 days) before serving! Optional toppings: whipped cream and chocolate shavings!
