Recipe: Chocolate Mousse
I saw this "light" recipe in a magazine and thought I would post it. I haven't tried it yet but I thought it might be a nice, lighter option to make for your someone special on Valentines Day!
Chocolate Mousse
* ¾ cup cold fat-free milk
* 1 package (1.4 ounce) sugar-free instant chocolate pudding mix
* ½ cup reduced-fat sour cream
* 3 ounces reduced-fat cream cheese, cubed
* ½ tsp vanilla extract
* 1 carton (8 ounces) reduced-fat Cool Whip, thawed
* 1 TBSP chocolate cookie crumbs
In a bowl, whisk milk and pudding mix for 2 minutes (mixture will be very thick). In a mixing bowl, beat the sour cream, cream cheese, and vanilla. Add pudding; mix well. Fold in Cool Whip. Spoon into individual dishes. Sprinkle with cookie crumbs. Refrigerate until serving.
