    Fold 1 cup of the remaining whipped cream into the dark chocolate mixture. Fold remaining 1 cup whipped cream into the milk chocolate mixture. Divide and layer chocolate mousses evenly among 12 shot glasses. Top each with reserved whipped cream. Refrigerate at least 1 hour. Sprinkle with chocolate chips.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    For a romantic dessert, use liqueur glasses instead of shot glasses.
  • tip 2
    To fill the glasses neatly, place the mousses in pastry bags without a decorating tip or in resealable plastic bags with one bottom corner cut off of each. Then, pipe the mousse into the glasses.
