Smooth Chocolate Mousse Dessert Recipe

Written by Published on Updated on October 7, 2022 in Uncategorized

To all the Chocolate lovers out there in the world, do I have a dessert for you this Smooth Chocolate Mousse Dessert Recipe.  So, last week  I was watching one of my favorite Greek Chefs Vagelis Driskas prepare this simple recipe on his cooking show http://kathemerachef.gr  which I just had to try.

This Smooth Chocolate Mousse Dessert Recipe only needs two ingredients.  Actually, two ingredients let’s just say is not accurate.  I posted this Chocolate Mousse on IG, and my good friend Caz from http://invisiblyme.com  (if you haven’t checked out Caz’s blog yet please pop over and check it out) was right about the ingredients. There is one more little catch I should mention, the third ingredient is patience.  This delicious dessert needs to rest overnight in the fridge.  “Sooooo Sorrryyyy”

The Chef left his Chocolate Mousse in the fridge for a few hours before serving.  Whereas, I left my Chocolate Mousse to rest overnight.  I have made many similar recipes in the past and I found that if you leave it overnight the following day the texture is much smoother.  Of course, you can just leave it in the fridge for a few hours if you don’t have the patience to wait, this is entirely up to you.

Hubby had no idea that I was preparing a Chocolate Mousse Dessert so I was able to hide the bowl in the back of the fridge…hehehehe    You can imagine the surprise on his face when he saw this!!!   I also added Grand Marnier into the Chocolate Mousse, just to give it a bit more of a boost.

Be strong withstand attacking the bowl for 24 hrs.

Have a great day everyone!!

Welcome to a small corner of my Greek Heritage. Growing up in New York from Greek parents, was a challenge of its own...but the traditional food, tastes and aromas that my mother cooked always travelled me back to Greece. My mother is a wonderful cook, our house would always have that smell of home cooked food. I remember very clearly that we were only allowed fast food, once a week, that was a huge day for myself and my brother. Jumping up and down in the back car seat, laughing, just being kids. It is true that we all like to eat different foods, taste, smell, even try food that looks different than our regular meals at home and I think that is so natural. In my teens, I was not really into cooking, I enjoyed my magazines after school, listening to music, and just taking a breather. There were times that I would glance at some of my mom's recipes, more out of curiosity than to actually try to cook them. At that time I did not realise that cooking would become my passion one day. Slowly, I would start to look into my mom's recipes a bit more each day and I started to find it interesting as a hobby. Each month I would go into our neighborhood bookstore and pick up my monthly book, until one day I decided to stroll over into the cooking section. That summer was the first time I actually bought a cooking magazine....and I loved it. Cooking and baking started out as a hobby, but now after many years it is my passion. Exploring the cuisines, the spices, the oils, the scents, the variety of smells and tastes that exist. It was and still is an amazing journey without limits. So, come along with me on this adventure, and I hope you enjoy my recipes. Sophie

    Hahahah damn, I'm all out of patience 😉 The Grand Marnier is a sneaky little addition. Do you taste it much in the chocolate? Good tip on leaving it overnight too. Maybe my poor memory will come in handy because I'll forget I made it and I'll have a nice surprise in the morning 😂 I loooooove choccy mousse but I've never made it before. Bookmarking this as I absolutely want to try this one soon. Thank you darling Soph for keeping us happy with reasons to eat chocolate! xx
