This Chocolate Mousse courtesy of our friends at The Kitchn is so decadent no one will guess how easy it was to make!
Warm 1/2 cup heavy cream in a microwave safe bowl for 1 minute. Add 1 cup good quality bittersweet chocolate chips and stir to combine. Set aside for 5 minutes so the chocolate melts, then whisk together until smooth.
In a medium bowl, add 1 cup cold heavy cream and beat with an electric hand mixer or with a whisk until soft peaks form. Transfer 1/2 cup to a small bowl and refrigerate to top the finished mousse before serving. Whip the remaining cream until stiff peaks form.
Using a large spatula, fold the whipped cream into the cooled chocolate mixture in three portions. Divide the mixture into 4 ramekins or cocktail glasses. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 4 before serving.
Dollop with the previously made whipped cream, sprinkle with grated chocolate and toasted hazelnuts, and enjoy!
