Raspberry Chocolate Mousse
Chocolate and raspberries has got to be the best flavor combination in the whole world. Forget the boring boxed chocolates this Valentines Day and make this for your Valentine!
Try serving this mousse in edible chocolate cups to make them look extra-fancy. Put cupcake liners in a cupcake pan and spoon a tablespoon or two of melted chocolate into the liner. Use a spoon to spread the chocolate up the sides. Chill in the refrigerator until they harden, then take off the paper and your edible chocolate cups are done! Be careful not the make the bottoms too thick or they’ll be difficult to bite into.
