For an extra touch of elegance, garnish with fresh berries, chocolate shavings, or a dusting of cocoa powder before serving. If you don't have a piping bag, you can simply spoon the mousse into the glasses. Feel free to adjust the amount of powdered sugar to your liking, depending on your preferred level of sweetness. For a richer flavor, use dark cocoa powder. Make sure your heavy cream is well-chilled for best results when whipping.
