  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar

Step 4

Fold in whipped cream. Spoon into dessert dishes. Refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.

Note that the proper term is mousse. It’s not a chocolate mouse or a chocolate moose. A mousse is really just a fancy pudding, with more air mixed into it to make it lighter.
