It has a mousse-like creamy base with a velvety smooth chocolate jello layer. It’s an elegant and impressive dessert that’s surprisingly easy to make. It’s perfect for baby showers, dinner parties or a romantic Valentine’s Day dessert.
Watch How to Make Vanilla Mousse:
The chocolate makes this somewhat of an adult dessert so if you want to make it kid friendly: use a 3 oz package of flavored jello and spoon it over the top once jello reaches room temperature.

If you’re wondering if these can be served in smaller dishes, the answer is yes!! You just have to work quickly to transfer the mousse into your cups. I went to a baby shower where these were served about 1/3 the size. Enjoy!!
