How to Make Easy Nutella Chocolate Mousse Gluten Free

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder and 2 tablespoons warm water until completely dissolved. Set aside.
  2. Chop 6 ounces of high-quality semi-sweet chocolate into small pieces. Place the chocolate in a heat-safe bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water (make sure the bowl doesn't touch the water).
  3. Melt the chocolate, stirring occasionally, until smooth and glossy. Remove from heat.
  4. Stir in 1/2 cup Nutella and the dissolved cocoa mixture until completely combined and smooth.
  5. In a large bowl (or the bowl of a stand mixer), beat 1 cup heavy whipping cream with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip.
  6. Gently fold the melted chocolate mixture into the whipped cream in two additions, being careful not to deflate the whipped cream. Fold until no streaks of chocolate remain.
  7. Transfer the mousse to a piping bag fitted with a large round tip (or use a spoon).
  8. Pipe or spoon the mousse into small ramekins, glasses, or a prepared miniature cheesecake pan.
  9. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
  10. Garnish with whipped cream and chocolate shavings before serving. Enjoy!
