Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon grass-fed gelatin or 1 packet gelatin

- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1 cup heavy cream chilled
- 1 teaspoon sugar-free vanilla extract

- In small cup, sprinkle gelatin over cold water; let stand 1 minute to soften. Add boiling water; stir until gelatin is completely dissolved and mixture is clear. Cool slightly.

- Beat on medium speed of electric mixer, scraping bottom of bowl occasionally if needed, until mixture is thickened. Pour in gelatin mixture and beat until well blended.

Notes
The original recipe used one packet of gelatin which is about 2.25 to 2.5 teaspoons of gelatin or about 1/4 ounce. However, you can use anywhere from 1 to 2.5 teaspoons of gelatin depending how stiff you want the mousse. For those who have been on low carb for a while, 1/4 cup sweetener will likely be too much. So adjust this as needed. I prefer to use about 2 tablespoons.
