How to Make Our High-Protein Chocolate Mousse

Step 2: Build the Flavor
Mix in the chocolate protein powder, cocoa powder, sweetener, and vanilla extract.
Whisk thoroughly until the mixture is thick and evenly combined.

Gradually add milk, one tablespoon at a time, whisking continuously until the mousse reaches a smooth, airy, spoonable consistency.
