Notes

Nutrition: The nutrition facts are for ⅙th of the recipe. I pipe it into 6 glasses to divide the mousse evenly. It is very rich.
 
Chocolate Chips: The sweetness in this comes from the sugar in the chocolate chips. You can use any variety but you may want to add a tablespoon or two of powdered sugar if you choose chips that aren't very sweet.
