🍫💪 Healthy Protein Chocolate Mousse (3 Ingredients)
This is a quick, high-protein dessert that feels rich and creamy but is actually simple and light.
🧾 Ingredients
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain, thick)
- 2–3 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2–3 tbsp honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)
👩🍳 Instructions
- Add Greek yogurt to a bowl
- Sift in cocoa powder (helps avoid lumps)
- Add honey or maple syrup
- Whisk until smooth and fluffy
💡 If it’s too thick, add 1–2 tsp milk to loosen it.
❄️ Chill (recommended)
- Refrigerate for 20–30 minutes
👉 This makes it thicker and more “mousse-like”
🍽️ Result
- Texture: creamy, smooth, pudding-like
- Flavor: rich chocolate with slight tang
- High protein, lower sugar than traditional mousse
🔥 Easy upgrades (optional)
- Add a pinch of salt → boosts chocolate flavor
- Mix in peanut butter → richer taste
- Add vanilla extract → smoother dessert profile
- Top with berries or banana slices
