*Reviewed for AussieNZ Forum Recipe Swap October 08* A very rich and delicious choc mouse. Like the previous reviewer, I dont' think I could taste the Amarula flavour- although I am very sure that it contributed to the very rich sinfullness of this dessert :)

This was a very YUMMY chocolate mousse! I made 2 servings, which filled three 1cup dishes. I melted my chocolate in a 2 cup glass pyrex with the butter in my microwave. I subbed 1percent milk for the cream and added 2T of Splenda Granular to make it sweeter for my tastes. I can't say I could taste much of the Amarula. It had more of a soft pudding consistency instead of mousse but that may have been due to my substitutions. This was very rich even the way I made it so a little goes a long way. I'd say my 2 servings was more like 6. Made for the Went to the Market game.
