  • 2 cup heavy cream
  • 2/3 cup powdered sugar

  5. In a medium bowl using a hand mixer, beat heavy cream and powdered sugar to stiff peaks.
  6. Add about 2 tablespoons of cooled melted chocolate and continue to beat until incorporated.
  7. Add remaining melted chocolate and fold in until just combined. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
  8. Carefully unwrap chocolate cups from liners.
  9. Place mousse into a piping bag fitted with an open star tip and pipe into cups.
