What did we
do before Pinterest? This is my “go to”
resource when looking for new recipes.
This dessert was heavenly!! The
perfect combination of sweet and creamy.
The chocolate and Bailey’s are a delight on the tongue. The mousse is so silky and decadent. What a great dessert that is satisfying – yet
light enough that you don’t feel over full after dinner. It really was like eating a sweet, creamy,
chocolate cloud!
This will
serve six. There were only four of us at
dinner, so I dished into four healthy servings.
Now I wish I had made six so we would have had leftovers today!
