Step-by-Step
1
Prep the chocolate base
- Chop chocolate; melt gently over a bain-marie (or 50 % microwave bursts).
- When fully melted, whisk in the egg yolks, vanilla, and 1 dropperful Brazza™ drops. Set aside to cool to body-temperature (≈ 37 °C / 99 °F).
2
Blend the bulking mix
- In a small bowl, whisk creatine and inulin together so they disperse evenly—no clumps later.
3
Whip the egg whites
- In a grease-free bowl start beating whites on medium speed.
- When they turn foamy, mix in 1 dropperful Brazzaâ„¢ drops, the cream of tartar and the combined bulking mix one tablespoon at a time.
- Continue to stiff-peak; the powder behaves like superfine sugar, tightening the foam.
4
Fold & finish
- Stir one-third of the meringue into the chocolate base to lighten.
- Gently fold the remaining two-thirds until no streaks remain—go slowly to keep the mousse airy.
5
Portion & chill
- Spoon into six 150 mL ramekins (or stemmed glasses).
- Cover and refrigerate 2 hours to set.
6
Serve (optional accents)
- Dust with unsweetened cocoa, or add a curl of 85 % chocolate for visual snap—no extra sugar required.
Why This Works
- Brazzaâ„¢ provides intense, sugary sweetness, with no calories and no glycemic hit.
- Creatine supplies zero-calorie bulk, hydration, and a sports-nutrition edge without affecting taste or texture.Â
- Inulin gives the mousse its classic body and a velvety spoon-break while adding healthy prebiotic fiber.
- Foam stability comes from a double act: cream of tartar lowers pH, and the finely sifted bulk powders increase surface viscosity—just as superfine sugar would.
Chef’s tip: If you prefer an even lighter macro, swap 100 g of the chocolate for 50 g cocoa powder + 50 g extra egg white. Keep the Brazza™ and bulking ratios unchanged; sweetness stays locked at target levels.
