Time 3h15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups low-fat ricotta cheese
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
2 large egg whites, room temperature
1/2 cup sugar
1 pinch salt
fat-free whipped topping

Steps:

  • In a food processor blend ricotta and cocoa powder until completely smooth. Transfer to a large bowl.
  • Place egg whites, sugar and salt into the top of a double boiler (metal bowl over water). Cook and whisk constantly until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is warm, about 3 minutes.
  • Remove bowl from heat and beat with an electric mixer on high until stiff peaks form, about 5 minutes. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold egg white mixture into the bowl with ricotta until well combined.
  • Divide into 6 6 oz. ramekins or small glasses and refrigerate at least 3 hours. If desired, garnish with whipped topping and a sprinkle of sweetened chocolate powder!

This mousse is a great make-ahead dessert. You can make it a day or two ahead of time, and it will still be delicious.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my mousse turned out grainy. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This mousse was a bit too rich for my taste, but it was still very good. I think next time I'll use a semisweet chocolate instead of a bittersweet chocolate.

I'm not a big fan of ricotta cheese, but this mousse was surprisingly good. The cheese flavor was very subtle, and the chocolate flavor was dominant.
