Technically, I suppose it’s Day Two, but yesterday was a rambling post with the addition of the food blogging, so I shall declare today as Day One and go from there. In case some of you missed it, I am participating in Yabu‘s “NATIONAL IRRITATE A FOOD PIC HATER FOOD PIC POSTING WEEK”, henceforth known as NIAFPHFPPW, for short. Click on his name and you’ll see the multitudinous postings of delish entries.
Today I shall feature what is probably my most requested dessert. Not only is it popular, but very, and I mean VERY, easy to make. It is also a good alternative to using raw eggs.
Chocolate Mousse
- 1 pint Heavy Whipping Cream
- ½ large jar Nutella Spread.
- 1 tbsp. Grand Marnier (optional)
In a medium bowl, whip the cream on a high setting until stiff peaks form. Add the Nutella and the liqueur if desired, and whip again until thoroughly mixed. Using a spatula, make sure to smooth out, and then spoon into custard cups. Makes about six servings.
Enjoy!! 🙂
*UPDATE*
I erroneously typed “small” instead of “large” for the Nutella jar. Correction done!!

I have some Truffles chocolate liqueur that would work in lieu of the Grand Marnier.

That would really intensify the flavor 🙂

And by “1 tbsp Grand Marnier”, you’re referring to how much should remain in the bottle after dumping the rest into the moose, right?
:evil, evil grin:

Riiiiiiiiiiiight…….
Your wonderful wife doesn’t let you cook, right?? 😉

Well, the wonderful Mrs.Alien doesn’t mind me cooking, she just refuses to do dishes. So if she cooks, I clean. If I cook….I clean. So I let her do all the cooking, since I have to do all the cleaning. And she finds it strange that I can cook an entire meal and only use like three dishes, including the pot/skillet, measuring cup, and maybe a small bowl. I inevitably use whatever fork/spoon that was used for stirring/mixing to eat with.

My hubby is allergic to the kitchen 😉

Go to store. Buy ingredients. Some assembly required 😉
