Greetings fellow food lovers! 馃懡馃憢
I've been off the internet for a while, intentionally for a bit of detox from the news and all. 馃檲馃檳
But I always kept our community in mind. 馃檹馃崁馃尲
Preparing the mousse will not take you much time, as it is a no-bake dessert. It just needs some time to chill in the fridge, preferably overnight.
A perfect mousse is soft and creamy, but still holds together in the shape we like.
The list of the ingredients we can add in our mousse is almost endless. To make it a little bit crunchy, add ingredients as cookie crumbles, puffed rice, nuts... For a little acidity and a colorful look, add some fresh sour berries or just any other type of sour fruit makes the taste heavenly harmonious.
I combined the chocolate mousse with red currants, which contrasted the bitter-sweet and sour taste. The currants melted in the middle, almost like jam, and created an attractive appearance when cutting the cake.
I added puffed rice to make the bottom layer to hold the currant berries, not escape from the bottom of the mousse.
The puffed rice also adds some crunch and tempers the richness of the chocolate and tartness of the red currants.
