Chocolate mousse

One of the challenges, I set for myself in 2016, is to be regular on the blog and to try something out new, along with the day to day cooking dishes. I wanted to start of with a simple dish, A Chocolate Mousse. I have been reading a lot of blogs and see a lot of versions of this simple chocolate mousse.. 

Everybody, literally everybody likes chocolate in some or the other form. And when offered no one says no. Who can say no to silken, smooth, chocolate, that slides through you throat and cools your tummy.

This dish is a party pleaser. It can be made ahead of time, Very easy to make and only three ingredients...Fresh cream, Melted chocolate, silver sprinkles.

Ingredients 

Fresh Cream - 1 pack

Melted Chocolates - 1 1/2 cups

Silver Sprinkles for decoration

Method 

Whip fresh cream until it forms stiff peaks 

Store it in the refrigerator until you use it.

Melt chocolate in a microwave or on a double boiler .

Allow the chocolate to cool well, 

Mix it with the fresh cream in batches and chill it.

Pipe them into small cups and top it with a fresh cream blob.

Sprinkle silver balls for a classy finish

Put them back into the fridge and serve after dinner.

Enjoy the praises, as you enjoy a cup of the dessert
