A delightful and easy-to-make dessert for two, featuring a creamy chocolate mousse layered over a cookie base.
In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar until smooth and creamy.
Ensure the cream cheese is at room temperature for easier mixing.
Melt the dark chocolate and let it cool slightly before adding it to the cream cheese mixture. Mix until well combined.
Use a microwave or double boiler to melt the chocolate evenly.
Fold in the whipped cream gently to maintain the mousse's light texture.
Use a folding motion to keep the mixture airy.
Place a chocolate cookie at the bottom of each paper-lined muffin cup.
Choose cookies that fit snugly into the muffin cups for a stable base.
Spoon the mousse mixture evenly over the cookies in the muffin cups.
Use a piping bag for a neater presentation.
Refrigerate the mousse cups for at least 2 hours or until set.
Cover the cups with plastic wrap to prevent them from absorbing fridge odors.
Serve chilled and enjoy your delicious no-bake chocolate mousse cups.
Garnish with chocolate shavings or a dollop of whipped cream for an elegant touch.
