A couple of weeks ago, I hosted a Wild Tree tasting. They do natural grapeseed oils, spices, ready to go meals that are natural. One of the things I needed to do as a hostess was make sure the sampling packets got made up into the ready to eat formats. We had raspberry cheesecake with graham crackers, chocolate mousse, smoked mozarella and tomato dip with crackers, and then all the grapeseed oil flavors as a dip for bread.
They were all tasty, but I especially liked that the chocolate mousse was so easy. I bought the heavy cream for it before the tasting, and then followed the instructions on the packet. It said to whip up the cream with a hand mixer until it formed soft peaks, then fold in the packet, which contained cocoa powder, sugar and vanilla. It worked famously and was delicious! I decided to try making my own one day..........
So, I bought more heavy cream a little while back, then made a recipe today.
8 oz. heavy cream
2 tbsp. cocoa powder
4 tbsp. powdered sugar
I added all these to my Quick Chef with the whipping blade on. I turned and turned it, checking every so often for consistency. After only a few minutes, it was done! And really yummy... I'm thinking of making it again with carob powder. I think it will be great!
What yummy things have you cooked up recently?
