Time 2h40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 tablespoons vegetable shortening (solid shortening like Crisco)
1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin (1 envelope)
1/4 cup cold water
1/2 cup boiling water
1/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 cups fresh raspberries
2 cups whipped cream (1 cup heavy cream whipped)

Steps:

  • To Make Cups: In a small saucepan, heat the chocolate chips and shortening over high heat, stirring continuously until melted.
  • Using the back of a metal spoon, spread the chocolate evenly inside six 3 1/2-inch foil muffin liners. Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
  • To Make Mousse: In a bowl, sprinkle the gelatin evenly over the cold water and allow the gelatin to absorb the water for 2 minutes. Add the boiling water and stir until the gelatin is fully dissolved. Add the sugar and stir until dissolved.
  • Transfer the gelatin mixture to a blender. Add the berries and blend until liquefied. Set a fine-mesh strainer over a bowl and pour the mixture through the strainer to strain out the seeds. Refrigerate until thickened.
  • Rinse the blender of any remaining raspberry seeds and return the thickened raspberry gelatin mixture to the blender. Add the whipped cream and blend until smooth. Refrigerate until thickened.
  • Carefully peel away the foil from the chocolate cups. Spoon the mousse into the cups and serve.

I'm going to try making these mousse cups with different flavors of chocolate. I think they would be great with white chocolate or even peanut butter chocolate.

I think these mousse cups would be even better if you used fresh raspberries instead of frozen.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my mousse cups didn't turn out as light and airy as I expected. They were still good, but not as good as I hoped.
