Easy Chocolate Mousse for two to Celebrate Valentine’s Day

Ziv thinks valentine’s day is just a big hype for commercial reasons. But he knows I love Valentines’ day very much. So despite how he feels; every year he buys me flowers, gets me a lovely gift. Sometimes we even go out for breakfast together.

Personally, I know that valentine’s day is totally blown out of proportion and a bouquet of flowers that would otherwise cost X dollars, on valentine’s day cost XX dollars. You can never find reservations unless you booked in advance. It’s a crazy day right?

These last couple of years I prefer to stay home for dinner rather than go out. I will usually cook something we both love to eat. One of our favorite things to do when we eat out is – we share a dessert. Often we will order two desserts but we eat one at a time together sharing both desserts. Both of us have a sweet tooth.

One of our all time favorite desserts as a couple is a Chocolate Mousse! No, let me correct that  – It’s dark chocolate mousse. We both love a good dark chocolate mousse with Kahlua in there. So often I will make this just for Ziv and me. The kids don’t like dark chocolate as much so we don’t have to share with them..

What for dessert this valentine’s day?

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner and I’m wondering if I should go with my same Easy Chocolate Mousse recipe or should I try something a little more different. I love this recipe not just because it’s our favorite but also because it’s so easy to make. You don’t need any special equipment.

The quantity being so little means you can whip the cream with just a bowl and whisk, no need for a mixer. The chocolate take 30 seconds to melt in the microwave. Combine the ingredients is all the work there is to it. Right?

Have you tired my other two valentine desserts or treats yet? Well, there is my Breakfast Yogurt Parfait for Two which is great to start the day with. Then for desserts I have Valentine Chocolate Fudge Cake for Two and Valentine Butterscotch Cake for Two and of course there is also the simple easy and always appreciated Chocolate Covered Strawberries that never fail to impress.
