Chocolate Mousse
Ingredients:
2 cups heavy whipping cream (pint container)
1.5 cups chocolate chips
1 stick unsalted butter
1 cup sugar
Method:
Whip the cream until stiff peaks. Set aside.

Bring out the whipped cream and stir in ¼ of the whipped cream into the chocolate mix. Work quickly to mix it all together before it cools too much.
Once combined, allow to cool for 30 minutes in the cooler.
Now, Carefully fold the rest of the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture. Do this slowly and carefully, ¼ of whipped cream at a time.
Once added, you’re done!
