- Take another bowl and add whipping cream to it; using a hand blender, whip the cream till you observe a soft peak. This might take up to 8-12 minutes. Add vanilla extract to it and again whip it to mix it well.
- Using a spatula, keep turning and mixing the melted chocolate, and add whipping cream to it until it is fully mixed.
- Now you can use a piping bag to serve it in a glass or bowl, or you can use a spoon.
- This can be served instantly as well as you can refrigerate it for some time.
Before serving, add some topping to the mousse, like strawberries, sliced oranges, blueberry, or chocolate sprinkles, whatever you like.
