How to Make Weight Watchers Easy Chocolate Mousse

  1. In a medium microwave-safe bowl, combine 1/2 cup half-and-half and 1 teaspoon instant coffee granules. Microwave on high for 1 minute.
  2. Add 6 ounces (170g) of semi-sweet chocolate chips and let stand for 2 minutes to melt.
  3. Whisk until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth and glossy.
  4. Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and a pinch of salt.
  5. Let the chocolate mixture cool to room temperature.
  6. In a separate medium bowl, beat 1 cup (240g) sour cream with an electric mixer until light and fluffy (about 2 minutes).
  7. Gently fold half of the whipped sour cream into the chocolate mixture using a rubber spatula until just combined.
  8. Repeat with the remaining sour cream, folding gently until incorporated.
  9. Divide the mousse evenly among 4 individual serving dishes.
  10. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to 1 day, until thoroughly chilled and set.
  11. Serve chilled, topped with fresh raspberries (optional).
