2 Ingredient Chocolate Mousse for Santa- Gluten Free - Dairy Free - Egg Free

Instead of cookies for Santa, how about chocolate mousse?  This one is dairy, egg and gluten free.  And, most importantly, it is delicious!

It only takes 2 ingredients and about 5 minutes (not counting chilling time in the fridge).

You need 6 ounces of almond milk (I used the protein + fiber) and 1 cup of bittersweet chocolate chips.

Place the chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl and microwave for 1 minute.

They will be slightly melted, but, look like this.

A quick stir to distribute the heat and they go back in the microwave.

Microwave for another 45 - 55 seconds and they look like this.

Stir for at least a minute and they will all be melted.

Add about half of the almond milk and stir.

It should look like this.

Add the rest of the almond milk and stir.

It will look like this.

Place some ice in a bowl (I used a pie pan) that the bowl of chocolate will fit into.

Place the bowl of chocolate on top of the bowl of ice.

Using a hand mixer, blend the chocolate almond milk mixture for about 5 minutes or until it is smooth and creamy.

It will look like this.

Using a spatula, stir the mousse scraping down the sides and bottom of the bowl.

Scoop into dishes (or not).  It should make 4 small portions, but, I scooped it into 3 larger portions.

Doesn't this look amazingly delicious?

Now, go try this for yourself.  Or, make it for Santa!  It's a great holiday treat that almost everyone can enjoy because there is no gluten, no dairy and no eggs!

Merry Christmas!

Love,

Susan
