A delicious, light and healthier Chocolate Mousse recipe made with greek yogurt. Great for kids, this makes a really simple but very tasty summer dessert!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\nChocolate Mousse has to be the ultimate in tempting dessert recipes. Rich and chocolately there is something just so satisfying about it. <\/p>\n\n\n\nBut given that it’s made with a tonne of double cream and quite often a mound of refined white sugar also, it’s not the healthiest option out there so I set about making it a little better for us. <\/p>\n\n\n\nTraditional chocolate mousse also contains raw eggs. I wasn’t keen on giving this to the baby so I wanted to also create a version that was egg free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWithout the whipped cream and eggs this mousse won’t take on that characteristic light and airy texture. <\/p>\n\n\n\nIt will be more like yogurt still but I promise you it tastes just as good. The whole family devoured this as a Sunday evening treat. The baby even kept coming back trying to nab more of mine!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\nBecause I was making this dessert for the kids I used 60% dark chocolate. If I was making it just for adults I would probably use a higher percentage cocoa content but I didn’t want to make it too bitter for them. <\/p>\n\n\n\nYou could also add flavouring, such as orange zest or a drop of mint essence or add extra honey too.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSo there you go. A delicious dessert treat\u00a0that the whole family can eat and enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n<\/div>\r\n
