Greek Yogurt Chocolate Mousse 
Decadent, Smooth, Chocolately pure Indulgence…yet, SO EASY!
Get your Chocolate fix right here folks…
Just few simple ingredients that you likely already have on hand!
What a fabulous last minute dessert idea!
I love that this FULLY tastes like dessert, yet we get the nice protein boost from the Greek yogurt.
While you don’t need any fancy processes, you do need to plan ahead for refrigeration time. So throw this together early afternoon, and pull em’ out for your loves, right after dinner.
This mousse does require 4 hours of refrigerator time for best results, so plan ahead!
Sweetness Factor:
A very personal taste preference, so you may want to use more or less maple syrup/honey, depending on YOUR family’s specific taste preferences.
Rachel’s notes:
Use any dark chocolate chips of your choice: the higher cacao percentage, the better.
If you’re looking to keep sugars lower; try Lily’s brand chocolate that is sweetened with stevia.
Cacao vs. Cocoa
Although they are completely interchangeable, cacao & cocoa are each processed differently.
Cacao is the purest form of chocolate. It’s an excellent source of antioxidants and has a high amount of flavonoids. Cacao is higher in protein, fiber, magnesium, and iron than its cousin cocoa.
If all you have on hand is cocoa powder, then that’s totally fine to use.
When you have a choice at the grocery store, reach for the lesser processed raw cacao to take advantage of its awesome health benefits in all of your homemade treats!
