Chocolate Mousse Cups
I had a strong craving for chocolate moose, so I decided to be a little creative and put these together.
Ingredients:
- 1 box Jello Chocolate Moose Mix
- 2 cups Heavy Whipping Cream
- 1/2 cup Strawberry Preserves
- 1 pkg. Chocolate bark
Directions:
- Chill stand mixer bowl and beaters in the freezer for ten minutes.
- Add Whipping Cream and Moose Mix and beat on high for four minutes.
- Continue beating mixture for two minutes on medium speed, making sure to scrape any edges of the bowl.
- When stiff peaks form, empty moose into a storage container and place in the fridge.
- Using a double boiler, melt chocolate bark.
- Using a spoon, coat the inside of mini silicone cupcake liners with the melted chocolate bark.
- To speed up the cooling and solidification process of the chocolate bark, place the coated silicone liners in the freezer for about one minute.
- Remove liners from the freezer and carefully separate the silicone from the chocolate.
- Put about one teaspoon of strawberry preserves into each chocolate cup.
- Slightly overfill the chocolate cup with the chocolate moose.
Additional Info:
Store these in the refrigerator after assembled. Also, you can try using any other preserves you’d like, but I figures strawberry and chocolate is a classic pairing.
These can also be made sugar free and vegan if you can find the right ingredients.
