Instant Chocolate Mousse - Nigella Lawson image

Normally, you need to make chocolate mousse a good few hours, or better still a day, before you want to eat it, so that the egg yolk sets and the whisked whites permeate everything with air bubbles. Forget that: here we have no yolks, no whites, no whisking, no waiting. Lack of raw egg, incidentally, also means that you might be happier giving the mousse to small children, though I certainly feel they should not be the only beneficiaries.

3 cups mini marshmallows
1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
9 ounces best quality semisweet chocolate, chopped into small pieces

1 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • Pour or scrape into 4 or 6 glasses or small dishes and chill until you want to eat.

This mousse is a great way to use up leftover chocolate. I had some chocolate chips that I needed to use up, and this recipe was the perfect solution.

This mousse is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still very good. I would recommend using less sugar if you like a less sweet dessert.

I was a bit skeptical about making mousse in an instant pot, but I'm so glad I tried it. It turned out perfect!

This mousse is the perfect make-ahead dessert. I made it the night before and it was even better the next day.

I was disappointed with this mousse. It was too dense and not very flavorful. I won't be making it again.

This mousse is a bit too rich for my taste, but it's still very good. I would recommend using a darker chocolate if you like a more intense flavor.
