Very tasty and easy! As stated by another reviewer, this is not an airy mousse, but rich and creamy. I subbed almond extract for the vanilla, and will try it with other extracts also. Would be good with orange or raspberry extract. Made for Spring 2011 PAC game. -
This was very , very good! For me , it didn't turn out like a light airy mousse though ... it is like a very creamy cooked pudding , with a good chocolate flavor!! Even though it didn't turn out like mousse , I'm keeping it in my regular rotation anyway! Creamy deliciousness! And not bad on the calories either!! Thanks for posting K&W&c !!
