In this cold, wintery season I usually enjoy eating chocolate desserts. Last winter, I tried to make chocolate mousse. Tried. It was too chocolaty, it wasn’t sweet enough, and it definitely wasn’t foamy. It ended up being a disaster and unfortunately, it wasn’t even good enough for me to eat. And then I recently decided to attempt to make chocolate mousse again, but then I found a mouth watering recipe for Chocolate Mousse Pie and switched to that instead. So I’m going to share this delectable dessert with you.
Ingredients Needed:
~ ½ cup of softened butter
~ ¾ cup of sugar
~ 2 (1 ounce) squares of unsweetened chocolate, melted and cooled
~ 2 eggs
~ 1 (4 ounce) carton frozen whipped topping- thawed
~ 1 baked 9” pastry shell
First, you need to cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. For best results, you can use an electrical mixer. Then you stir in the squares of chocolate. Add the eggs-one at a time, and beat them for 5 minutes after each addition. Slowly, you will begin to see results. Gradually, fold the whipped topping into the chocolaty mixture. Lastly, you spoon the filling into the pastry shell and chill or freeze for 2 hours. Then you will have a luscious chocolate mousse pie.
I finally made this amazing recipe and i enjoyed it very much with my family on New Year's. I am estatic that this was a success, compared to my other failed attempt. Although the mousse is kind of tough and tricky, I encourage anyone to try this dessert. Personally, my favorite part is the chocolate mousse, and hopefully when you try this, you'll like it too!
