Notes
Tips:
Some may prefer the mousse a bit sweeter, taste it first and add extra stevia if necessary. Remember that it will pick up sweetness from the berries and chocolate chips.
To make the filling and serving process easier, cut off the very bottom tip of the strawberry to create a flat surface and allow it to stand up.
If stevia is not your thing, to keep it sugar-free, try monk fruit, erythritol, or allulose. And you wish to use regular sugar, just mix it in and taste as you go to avoid over-sweetening. You can also try maple syrup or brown sugar.
