Ingredients
Cheesecake Mixture
- 1 cup fresh ricotta
- 8 oz softened cream cheese
- ½ cup milk
- ½ cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Chocolate Mixture
- ½ pack of chocolate pudding
Instructions
Prepare the Base Mixture
- In a large bowl of a stand mixer or handheld mixer, combine the cheesecake mixture at low speed until smooth and slightly thickened.
- Then add the chocolate pudding on high speed. If it is not thick enough, add more of the chocolate pudding powder until stiff peaks appear and you have an airy mousse.
Place in Jars
- Using a piping bag, place mousse in the bag, then pipe into individual serving cups, into a peak.
- Sprinkle semi-sweet chocolate chips on to top and garnish with mint, rosemary, whatever you like for a special occasion.
Chill and Serve
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until firm and mousse-like in texture.
Notes
Options
- Top with shaved chocolate.
- Add a little Cool Whip or whipped cream on top.
- Make an Oreo crust at the bottom before piping the mousse or Oreo cookie crust sprinkled on top.
- Sprinkle crumbled graham crackers.
