Chocolate Espresso Mousse
So delicious! Hint..do not use 2 cups of whip topping. I used about 1/2 cup, still VERY delicious and not as many calories. I also tried the recipe with vanilla pudding, which is very good too. Quick and simple, good for a chocolate craving.

Delicious
I made this for a "girls night" and it was so good! I was nervous about the expresso part-but it tasted wonderful. It was just enough chocolate to satisfy that craving but not overwhelmingly sugary like most mouses! All my friends asked for the recipe too, it was a hit!

Yummy
Easy to make and very delicious. We've tried various healthified desserts and this is my husband's favorite.

Suprisingly Great
I have to admit that I only made this recipe because I needed to use up my soymilk, I had most of the ingredients on hand and it was a fast fix to my chocoalte craving. I have tried countless low-fat or healthy desserts that pacify my craving but never tasted as good as I hoped. This receipe was the first that made me feel like I was eating a delicious dessert rather than settling in order to behave myself. My husband, who usually balks at my "healthy" desserts loved it as well. I seved it with a couple of chocolate wafer cookies and some sliced strwberries. It was so easy to make that I have already made sure taht I have all of the ingredients on hand. I am breasfeeding my 5 month old so I try to eat a healthy balanced diet and the use of the Soymilk is great. If you need another way to use up the soymilk and don't like drinking it alone, I use it to make chocolate-banana smoothies which is a great healthy snack. This will recipe will be used often!
