Creamy Chocolate Mousse

This is one of those desserts that has few ingredients and takes minutes to put together . I mean seriously, very little time to make, but the rewards are awesome. Remember the commercial where mom is in the kitchen with her apron on and throws flour in her face to make it look like she slaved all day to make rice krispie treats? Yeah, this is one of those recipes.

Creamy Chocolate Mousse is made with a small package of instant chocolate pudding with a few other ingredients thrown in. Let’s talk about the flavor options, I love a versatile recipe and this one has as many options as there are instant pudding flavors. Lemon, lime, vanilla, coconut….they can all be made into a creamy, delicious, easy mousse in minutes.

Creamy Chocolate Mousse, your summer or all year round ticket to an easy to put together, fantastic treat, enjoy!
