Chocolate Mousse (to die for!)
A simple, elegant, and scrumptious chocolate mousse that is both light and rich. This sensational dessert is a feast for the senses as it transports you to pure dessert bliss. Every single spoonful explodes with rich chocolate madness, melting in your mouth and making you crave for what could be the next closest thing to heaven mankind will ever know. But the best part is the simplicity of its preparation. Let me share a recipe demonstrated to me (during the Chef of the Day Event for Bloggers) by Chef Joey Prats, Culinary Institute of Aristocrat (CIA) Program Development Consultant.
