How to Make Sugar Free Hot Chocolate Mousse
This Sugar Free Hot Chocolate Mousse is made with almond milk and glucomannan as its thickening agent. Together with flavors of chocolate and vanilla blend into the perfect dessert or snack.
I topped mine with cacao nibs because I’m kind of obsessed with them right now. If you like dark chocolate, you need to check them out. They can be eaten raw, but we are enjoying them sprinkled on desserts and oatmeal for a special touch.
What is Glucomannan
Glucomannan is a type of dietary fiber that comes from the root of the konjac plant. It is used in food products like pasta and flour. It’s also the main ingredient in shirataki noodles. Glucomannan has many health benefits. It can help to control blood sugar levels, reduce cholesterol, and promote weight loss by making you feel fuller for longer. It’s often used as a supplement for weight loss and cholesterol management. It’s important to take it with plenty of water to prevent choking or blockage in the throat or intestines.

This looks so smooth and luscious. Thanks for sharing your recipe at Sweet and Savoury Sundays, we’d love for you to link up again this weekend.
This is the perfect guilt free chocolate fix. I love it so much… it is so yummy for an end of the day treat. Thanks for stopping by!
just a heads up – omitting the cottage cheese won’t make it dairy free since Greek yogurt is a dairy product. Using coconut milk yogurt might be an alternative to make it genuinely dairy free.
You would omit and yogurt and cottage cheese – They are either or not both… I’ll need to rewrite the recipe better to make that clear.
Thank you so much for the tip about coconut milk yogurt – I love coconut milk and coconut milk ice cream. I’ll have to try coconut milk yogurt.
So I just made this tonight for my Fiance and I. It turned out ok any suggestion on how to get the lumps out? I tried adding the gluccie slowly (which I think is what the lumps are), but I maybe didn’t add it slowly enough? Also it seems some what slimmy verses fluffy…any suggestions? TIA!
Oh no! Yeah, I would guess the lumps are the glucci. Are you using you mixer with a whisk attachment? That was what really changed the consistency for me. When I was using any other method, it wouldn’t allow enough air to mix in and wouldn’t have the same consistency. With the clumps… I’m trying to think why it would clump. I add the glucci while the whisk is still turning probably at a medium speed. I hope this helps!

Yes you can add as much as you need. It won’t change the taste, just the viscosity

This sounds so yummy!!
Is it possible to leave out or substitute the xylitol?
You can use whatever sweetener you prefer!
I just made this & it is pretty good. However, I have read & reread the recipe & can ‘t figure out for the life of me why it is called Hot Chocolate Mousse when it is actually eaten cold. Can you shed some light on this? Thx
YUMM. . .just made this in blender on low — using carob — too late in the evening for chocolate. Did not refrigerate — ate immediately. YUMM.
Awesome!!! So glad you liked it!
Only sugar free if you use unsweetened almond milk. Regular almond milk is high in sugar, which is why I stopped buying it.
I only buy unsweetened almond milk as well and forget people may be thinking of the regular one. Thanks for the comment!

So using a hand mixer wouldn’t work? 🙁
Probably, I don’t have one to try myself : )
I’m out of gluccie…. would xantham gum work instead? Have you tried this in a blender? I have a stand mixer, but thinking it may not work as well as a kitchen aid would. Thanks for sharing this recipe!
This was amazing!!!! Thank you so much! I just might be having this every single day from now on!
I am so glad you loved it too!!
