  • Only From Scratch

    ...a favorite dessert in my husband's family, so it was only appropriate that my in-laws are in town this week and can sample this decadent delight.

    If you’ve never made homemade mousse, do it. Now. Remember, I’m your guinea pig and this is both easy and tasty! Light and decadent homemade chocolate mousse. What more could you ask for?

  • Bran Appetit!

    Among all the recipes for chocolate mousse this is one of the best, we think; it uses egg yolks, sugar, and butter, and instead of cream, beaten egg whites.

  • Knit and Nosh

    I can not imagine eating a bowl of this for dessert. So rich. Maybe even a little too rich. A couple of spoonfuls was enough for me.

    With a little whipped topping and some of my candied orange rind, you will really impress anyone you make this for! I think Julia would have been proud.

    I didn't taste it right away but when I did, I was surprised by the fact that it tasted like... mousse! Its airy texture was still there a day later... I was impressed with my first effort.

    Julia’s Mousseline au Chocolat is worthy of a special occasion...
