This recipe makes a very rich tasting but light textured chocolate mousse that is almost sin free. People can’t believe it’s zero carb, has no milk products, zero cholesterol and very low in fat (about 10 grams per serving). This recipe was adapted from several of Alice Medritch’s excellent chocolate mousse recipes. If you’re a fan of chocolate desserts, you need to get her books Bittersweet and Chocolate and the Art of Low Fat Desserts. I combined the basic mousse recipes from Bittersweet with some of the low fat ideas from the other book. I modified the basic mousse recipes to make them easier to make and to eliminate the carbs (they were already lactose-free).
