Ingredients
Scale
For Easy Chocolate Mousse
- 1 cup chocolate chips (preferably high quality)
- 1 cup whipping cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Parfaits
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- ½ cup prepared chocolate mousse
- Marshmallows, for garnish
- Mini chocolate chips, for garnish
- Graham cracker crumbs, for garnish
Instructions
- To make the mousse, gently melt the chocolate chips using a microwave or double boiler, then let the mixture cool slightly.
- In a mixing bowl, whip the cream with vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
- Fold the melted chocolate into the whipped cream until the mixture is smooth and fully combined. Chill if needed for a firmer texture.
- In serving glasses, layer graham cracker crumbs, mini marshmallows, and a spoonful of chocolate mousse.
- Repeat the layers as desired, ending with a mousse layer on top.
- Garnish with marshmallows, mini chocolate chips, and a final dusting of graham cracker crumbs.
- Serve immediately for a soft mousse texture, or chill briefly to firm it up before serving.
Notes
- For a toasted twist, lightly torch the marshmallow garnish before serving.
- You can prepare the mousse up to 1 day in advance—just keep it refrigerated.
- Use dark or semi-sweet chocolate chips for a richer flavor, or swap in milk chocolate for a sweeter profile.
- Crush whole graham crackers yourself for the freshest taste and texture.
