This chocolate dessert is reminiscent of a mousse-like, packaged mix dessert of the 1960’s called Whip ’n Chill. This healthy version is homemade from all natural ingredients without the preservatives, stabilizers, etc. in packaged mixes.

3 Tbsp cocoa powder
4 1/2 Tbsp granulated sugar
2 Tbsp plus 2 tsp butter
1 cup cold milk, divided
1 Tbsp granulated unflavored gelatin

1 cup cream
1/2 tsp vanilla
Soak gelatin in 1/4 cup of milk for 5 minutes.
