Where to find ingredients
Sugar-free chocolate pudding mix can be found in the baking or dessert aisle of most major supermarkets. Unflavored gelatin powder is usually located near the jello or baking supplies. Milk and light table cream (a shelf-stable or refrigerated cream with lower fat content) are standard items in the dairy aisle; if you cannot find specific 'light table cream,' heavy cream may be used as a richer alternative or a lower-fat dairy cream depending on your dietary preference.
Preparation method
- Prepare the sugar-free chocolate pudding mix according to the package directions, using 400 ml of milk, and place in the fridge to set
- Bloom the unflavored powdered gelatin in water as instructed on the package
- In a blender, combine the chilled chocolate pudding, the light table cream, and the bloomed gelatin
- Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy
- Pour the mousse into individual serving cups or ramekins
- Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until firm
- Garnish as desired before serving
