A delicious way to enjoy the benefits of functional chocolate

Looking for a dessert that’s not only indulgent but also supports your brain and mood? This nootropic chocolate mousse recipe is the perfect fusion of rich, creamy texture and functional wellness. Made with SASS UNWIND or the SASS FUNCTION Breakaway Bar, this recipe is a fun, flavorful way to incorporate nootropics into your day (no capsules required).

Whether you’re hosting friends or treating yourself to something special, this chocolate mousse will hit the spot with its silky texture and luscious whipped cream topping.

Chocolate Mousse with Whipped Cream

Ingredients

Mousse:

  • 90g SASS UNWIND or FUNCTION Breakaway Bar (chopped)
  • 30g sugar
  • 3 eggs (separated into yolks and whites)
  • 4 oz unsalted butter
  • 2.5g vanilla extract

Whipped Cream:

  • 75g heavy cream
  • 5g sugar
  • 1.5g vanilla extract
  • 0.5g salt (a pinch)

Instructions

Step 1: Melt the Chocolate and Butter

Bring a small saucepan of water to a simmer. In a heatproof bowl, add the chopped nootropic chocolate and butter. Place the bowl over the simmering water, ensuring it doesn’t touch the water. Stir gently until fully melted. Set aside to cool slightly.

Step 2: Whisk the Egg Yolks

In a separate bowl, combine the egg yolks, sugar, and vanilla extract. Place over the simmering water and whisk continuously until the mixture is pale and slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat.

Step 3: Combine with Chocolate

Add the melted chocolate mixture into the egg yolk mixture and stir until smooth and fully incorporated.

Step 4: Whip the Egg Whites

In a clean bowl, whisk the egg whites until they form stiff, glossy peaks.

Step 5: Fold and Chill

Add one-third of the whipped egg whites to the chocolate mixture and stir to lighten. Gently fold in the remaining egg whites until the mousse is smooth and airy.
Divide the mousse into individual serving bowls or glasses and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

Step 6: Make the Whipped Cream

While the mousse sets, whip the heavy cream with the sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until stiff peaks form.

Step 7: Serve and Enjoy

Top each bowl of chilled mousse with a generous dollop of whipped cream. Serve immediately and savor the rich, nootropic-powered indulgence!

Why Use Nootropic Chocolate?

Using SASS UNWIND or FUNCTION Breakaway Bars adds more than flavor, it adds substance. Nootropics are natural compounds that may support mood, memory, and focus. This dessert is a delicious way to wind down or lift up, depending on which bar you choose.

High Tea Infused Floral Shortbread Cookies by k.o.k.u.j.i.n

Looking for the perfect Labor Day weekend activity?

We asked chef Rhiana aka k.o.k.u.j.i.n to whip up a delish botanical bite for our High Tea party. They came up with a sweet treat that promises to wow on any table as well as help soften our transition from summer to fall.

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 cup magical butter, room temperature
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar, plus more for topping
  • 1/2 teaspoon honey
  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • ½ cup food-safe flower petals

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 325° F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.

In the bowl of a stand mixer, add in butter, sugar, honey, and flour. Mix slowly until a crumbly dough forms. It will look like crumbs in the stand mixer, but when squeezed together in your hands will hold its shape.

Form dough into a ball and roll in between parchment paper to 1/2-inch thick. Cut into small 3-inch circles (or any shape desired) and place onto prepared baking sheets. Gently press flower petals into the cut cookie dough. Using a small spoon, top each cookie with a sprinkle of sugar.

Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the bottoms of the cookies are barely golden brown. Cool 5 minutes on hot baking trays before transferring to cooling racks.
