Chocolate is always popping up around the holidays and it’s time to devour all the desserts, like this amazing

Chocolate Marshmallow Mousse

Mousse feels like a sophisticated dessert, something luxurious in texture and by name but also something that isn’t always enjoyed year round.

This recipe is decadent and light at the same time while being completely satisfying without being too rich or overwhelming.

The fresh whipped cream creates a softness to the chocolate palette while keeping it simple and effortless and the semi-sweet chocolate shavings end the notes of the chocolate mousse with a distinct flavor.

The dessert glasses used for this Chocolate Marshmallow Mousse were the perfect compliment to this recipe. The small gold pineapples give just enough of a fun decorative look while holding the perfect amount of mousse.

These Golden Crown Pineapple glasses are so cute and are actually stemless wine glasses, they can be found here from The Crystal Shoppe. All the crystal and glass is high quality and engraved to last. Almost all of my glassware is from here and we can’t recommend them enough, check them out!
