2/7Classic Chocolate Mousse
Bon Appetit’s chocolate mousse is a must-learn for your dessert arsenal. With dark chocolate and espresso notes, it’s simple yet sophisticated, and once you get the basic recipe right, you can play around with adding different fruits, nuts, and sauces.

According to dessert blogger Oh Sweet Day, the chocolate cake between the mousse is so moist, you need to eat it with a spoon. So while it’s not technically chocolate mousse, it has the same consistency and a light fruit flavor.
4/7[White Chocolate Mousse] (http://prettysimplesweet.com/2-ingredient-white-chocolate-mousse/)
Pretty Simple Sweet’s white chocolate mousse has two ingredients: heavy cream and melted white chocolate. (Okay, three ingredients, if you count the raspberries on top.) Pretty. Simple. Sweet.
5/7Salted Caramel Chocolate Mousse
From The New York Times’ cooking blog comes a recipe for chocolate mousse with a hint of caramel. Arguably the best part of this recipe is that you make the caramel yourself first, and then mix in the chocolate. So in the process, you learn how to make caramel sauce. Haven’t you always wanted to make caramel from scratch? We sure have.

SugarHero Elizabeth LaBau’s repipe for Chocolate-Raspberry Mousse is four layers of heaven. Brownie, Chocolate Mousse, Raspberry Mousse, and Vanilla Mousse are stacked and topped with chocolate ganache and fresh raspberries. Yum!
