I made the perfect chocolate mousse, but I didn't use any flour or milk

As I was getting ready for snack time, I suddenly had a craving for a chocolate dessert. I wanted to make a mousse, but I didn't have any milk or flour… but I managed it anyway.

A sweet snack was just what I needed today to lift my spirits before I got back to work. It was a real sore point: I had less than 10 minutes to prepare it, and the ingredients weren't on my side at all.

Yet, despite everything, I found the perfect solution for my situation thanks to a recipe I found on social media while watching various videos. So, I thought I'd try it and share it with you today. Here's the recipe for this super-quick chocolate snack.

Chocolate mousse recipe without milk and flour

When we make a mousse, the first culinary example that comes to mind is custard, which then needs to firm up in the refrigerator for a couple of hours. In other cases, it can also be made with gelatine, depending on the recipe we're following. Today, however, we don't need any of this, just two ingredients you might never have thought of:

a pack of cottage cheese, 2 tablespoons of dark chocolate, 1 teaspoon of honey.

I'll reveal to you how to prepare my very sweet light snack

One of the positive aspects of this dessert, therefore, is the fact that it contains less than 100 kcal per serving, since cottage cheese is a light food with very few calories per package. Therefore, the whey should not be removed, but rather poured entirely into a blender along with the chocolate and blended until perfectly combined, becoming a soft and velvety cream.

We finish the preparation by adding honey, then, when our cream needs to be poured into molds and transferred to the refrigerator for just 15 minutes and that's it... your very light and chocolatey snack, with the same consistency as mousse, is ready to be enjoyed by even the youngest children, satisfying their craving for a dessert made on the spot with you.
