INGREDIENTS:

INGREDIENT NOTES:
FAT-FREE GREEK YOGURT:
- You can easily make the mousse consistency if you use Greek yogurt. As you know, we will be using the non-fat one so that Weight Watchers can comfortably have this dessert. There is no fat when you add this to the dessert. If there is an alternative you need, try using low-fat Greek yogurt.
POWDERED PEANUT BUTTER:
- Peanut butter will basically be the main item in this dessert. We will use the powdered version of it. An alternative option for you to use can be normal peanut butter, but if you’re using it, the WW points will definitely rise.
UNSWEETENED COCOA POWDER:
- As the chocolate taste is also the main element in this dessert, we need cocoa powder for that. The reason for using the unsweetened cocoa powder is that you can control the sweetness level, and it will not increase your WW points a lot. For another idea, you can use sugar-free chocolate syrup as well.
SUGAR-FREE SWEETENER:
- There will be no calories from the use of sugar-free sweetener, which can easily make your dessert sweet. Add the amount of sweetness the way you like. Monk fruit can also be a great choice to use for adding sweetness to your dessert.
FAT-FREE WHIPPED CREAM:
- This is an important thing that you will be using in your dessert. This product is fat-free, firstly, which is great for the WW diet; secondly, the consistency will be fluffy. If you mix and fold this cream into the mixture, it will give you a great dessert feeling. An alternative idea can be using whipped coconut cream.
VANILLA EXTRACT:
- If you are adding vanilla extract to your mousse, the taste will definitely get a boost.
UNSWEETENED ALMOND MILK:
- When you add unsweetened almond milk to the mousse mixture, you will see that the consistency is not rigid or very firm. For an alternative idea, you can use any kind of milk with a lower caloric count.
INSTRUCTIONS:
- First, you need to take a mixing bowl and include Greek yogurt in it.
- Then include the rest of the ingredients and the almond milk at the end.
- Do not add the whipped topping yet.
- Whisk the mixture so that you can make it smooth enough to look like a mousse.
- Then comes the folding of whipped topping into the mixture.
- Add the mousse to the serving bowls.
- Finally, refrigerate for thirty minutes.
- Now your delicious mousse is ready for serving.
- SERVING SUGGESTIONS:
- If you add some berries to the top of the mousse, it will look like a fancy dessert.
- Cocoa powder will also be a great topping option for the mousse.
- To make the serving look nicer, you can use small glasses for dessert to put the mousse in.
TIPS:
- There is no specific time limit to refrigerate the mousse; you can keep it for more than 30 minutes.
