If someone told you there was a moose in your kitchen, you might panic, unless you knew they were talking about chocolate mousse! I know, it’s a lame joke, but it’s a great way to introduce a desert that is so delicious, it will have your mouth watering before you take your very first bite!
Most of us think of the animal when we think of mousse, but it is actually a French word that means foam. It is an appropriate term for a dessert that is light and airy because the air is incorporated directly into the dessert. When made properly, it will melt in your mouth!
