Hot chocolate cheesecake? You might be wondering how exactly this works—well, let us tell you. Turns out, the silken texture of a chocolate cheesecake is not far off from the thick, creamy texture of a perfect cup of cocoa. But that’s not all: Cocoa wouldn’t be half as good without the contrast lent by a dollop of whipped cream, which is where the marshmallow-whipped cream comes into play. Piling this on top of the cheesecake somehow makes the chocolate cheesecake and chocolate-sugar cookie crust that much more chocolaty. For a finishing touch, garnishing with your favorite cocoa toppings—we like mini marshmallows (Can you ever have too much marshmallow? We think not!), mini chocolate chips, and if we’re feeling fancy, crushed peppermint candies.

For easy cutting of pieces, cut with long, thin-bladed knife. After each cut, dip knife into hot water, and wipe it with a towel.

Double wrapping the bottom of the springform pan will help prevent leaking during baking. 

Kraft Jet-Puffed mallow bits can be found either in the baking aisle or the ice cream toppings section of grocery stores.

<p>Ah, chocolate mousse. The distinctly decadent dessert with a thick and creamy texture and rich, chocolate flavor. It’s the kind of dessert you probably associate with fancy, fine, French dining, but with Betty by your side, it’s achievable right in your own kitchen!&nbsp;</p><p>The word mousse is a French term meaning “foam” or “froth,” which does a pretty good job getting the point across. It’s a fluffy yet creamy chocolate dessert that, when prepared just right, has a lightly whipped texture that melts in your mouth and adds a touch of class to the end of your meal. Chocolate mousse was first made in France. Surprisingly enough, it was originally invented by the French artist Henri Toulouse-Lautrec, a famously experimental cook who saw the savory mousses popular at the time, such as foie gras, and had the brilliant idea that they might be a lot tastier with a whole lot of chocolate instead! The ingredients are simple—eggs, cream, sugar and semisweet baking chocolate. But the secret to the best chocolate mousse recipe is in the technique. Lucky you, the Betty Crocker Test Kitchens have made that part easy.</p><p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>The best chocolate mousse recipe has simply egg yolks, sugar, whipping cream, and semisweet baking chocolate. Plus a little patience. It’s important to take your time and add the ingredients gradually to achieve an unforgettably smooth texture.</p><p>In fact, that unique texture can be found in all of our <a href="https://www.bettycrocker.com/recipes/dishes/mousse-recipes
">mousse recipes</a>. It’s not just chocolate that makes a supremely delicious dessert—though it certainly does help!</p>

Chocolate Mousse Ingredients

<p>When it comes to preparing Chocolate Mousse, its gourmet reputation can seem intimidating, but our recipe keeps it simple. The complete directions are below, but here’s everything you need to make a dessert your family will love. You’ve got this!</p><h3><strong>Start with the Egg Yolks</strong></h3><p>Separate out the yolks and beat with an electric mixer for about 3 minutes, or until the mixture takes on a thick, almost fluffy texture.</p><h3><strong>Heat One Cup of the Cream</strong></h3><p>Once it’s hot, reduce the heat and temper the eggs by gradually adding at least half of the cream to the eggs. If the cream is added too quickly, it could start to cook the eggs. So be patient, and take your time. Once the eggs are tempered, stir them back into the saucepan.</p><h3><strong>Add the Chocolate</strong></h3><p>Now comes the fun part. Once the egg-cream mixture is thickened, stir in the chocolate and let it melt. Refrigerate the result for a few hours to let it set.</p><h3><strong>Whip up Some Cream</strong></h3><p>It’s back to the electric mixer to beat the remainder of the cream into a stiff foam. Here’s how to check if the cream is ready: When you take the whisk out, you’ll notice small peaks form and stand up on their own.</p><h3><strong>Combine and Enjoy</strong></h3><p>This is when the magic happens. Gradually fold in the whipped cream into your rich chocolate mixture, and when you’re done, you’ll have the best of both worlds: A fluffy, creamy dessert with smooth chocolate flavor. Spoon into cups and refrigerate until you’re ready to serve!</p>

How to Make Chocolate Mousse

<p>The ideal way to serve mousse is in individual cups or serving bowls. Not only will you add a flair of fine dining to your kitchen, but the relatively steep sides will give your mousse some verticality. And a simple garnish makes the perfect finishing touch. A dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of freshly grated chocolate on top will make each cup a little work of art for every person at your table.</p><h3>&nbsp;</h3>

How Should I Serve Chocolate Mousse?

<p>Mousse should be served refrigerated, so the cold can help the mousse set into that signature fluff. If you end up with leftovers, the finished mousse will last for about 3-5 days in the fridge. Cover to prevent drying, and when you’re ready to serve again—or just ready for a snack—you can take it straight from fridge to table.</p><h3><strong>Can You Freeze Chocolate Mousse?</strong></h3><p>Chocolate mousse does very well in the freezer, and once frozen, it will keep for up to 2 months. To bring it back to life, transfer the mousse into the refrigerator and let it thaw for about 2 hours until it’s soft enough to spoon and serve. Allowing it to come back to a cool temperature slowly—instead of heating it up at all—helps the mousse keep its structure, so it’s just as thick and fluffy as the day it was made.</p>

Other Mousse Recipes We Love

<p>Mousse is delicate work. If you stick to the recipe, and work with patience, you’ll get the results you’re after. Here are some common pitfalls and how to avoid them.</p>
<p><b>Overbeating the Eggs</b> Beating the egg yolks blends them together into a smooth consistency and introduces tiny air bubbles that give them their structure. But it’s possible to over-beat, which will make your eggs dry out and result in a grainy mixture. Watch your eggs as you beat them, and when they’re adequately thickened, you’re ready to move on to the next step.</p>
<p><b>Adding a Thickening Agent</b> Adding something like cornstarch and cold milk can be a shortcut to getting the thick, luscious feel of mousse everybody loves, but the result is a mousse that’s not as easy to work with. If the cornstarch breaks down, the mousse could become runny.</p>

What Are Common Mistakes When Making Mousse?

<p>The difference is in how each dessert is thickened. Chocolate mousse uses beaten eggs and whipped cream to form its base structure, and does not need to be cooked. Chocolate pudding uses cornstarch as a thickening agent, and the resulting mixture is cooked, which activates the cornstarch and forms a more dense, wobbly texture. The result is that chocolate mousse has a much more delicate consistency, as opposed to chocolate pudding which is quite dense.</p>

valentine cream wafers

Bake these delightfully easy Valentine Cream Wafers. These melt-in-your-mouth, heart-shaped cookies with creamy filling are perfect for Valentine's Day.&nbsp;

<p>To make the most tender cookies, start with properly chilled dough and avoid rerolling the dough more than twice.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Let's dive into the delightful ingredients that make these&nbsp;Valentine Cream Wafers&nbsp;so irresistible and perfect for sharing.</p><p><strong>All-Purpose Flour:</strong>&nbsp;This is the foundation. Flour provides the structure for these&nbsp;light and crispy cookies, ensuring they hold their shape while baking into perfect&nbsp;heart-shaped treats.</p><p><strong>Butter: </strong>Butter is the secret to an incredibly&nbsp;rich flavor&nbsp;and&nbsp;a perfect texture.</p><p><strong>Heavy Whipping Cream:</strong>&nbsp;This adds a touch of richness and helps bind the dough, making your&nbsp;cookie wafers&nbsp;extra delicate and smooth. &nbsp;</p><p><strong>Granulated Sugar:</strong>&nbsp;Used for coating the cutouts, this sugar adds a lovely sparkle and a subtle sweetness to the exterior.</p><p><strong>Powdered Sugar:</strong> Powdered sugar dissolves easily, creating a super smooth and sweet base for your&nbsp;buttercream filling.&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Vanilla:</strong>&nbsp;A classic flavor enhancer! Vanilla adds a warm, aromatic note that elevates the sweetness of the filling, making these&nbsp;sandwich cookies&nbsp;even more delicious.</p><p><strong>Red Liquid Food Color:</strong>&nbsp;This is how you get those beautiful&nbsp;shades of pink&nbsp;for your filling.</p>

Recipe Ingredients

<p>Here's how to make these delightful Valentine Cream Wafers, see the full recipe below for all the details.</p><h3><strong>1. Prepare and Chill the Dough</strong></h3><p>When mixing the wafer dough, mix just until combined and don’t skip chilling it.&nbsp; Properly chilled dough is much easier to roll out thinly without sticking, and it helps the cookies maintain their shape during baking.</p><h3><strong>2. Roll, Cut, and Sugar the Wafers</strong>&nbsp;</h3><p>On a lightly floured surface, roll out one-third of the chilled dough at a time. When rolling, try to handle the dough as little as possible and get as many cutouts from your first few rolls. Sugar and prick each cutout with a fork.</p><h3><strong>3. Bake Wafers</strong></h3><p>The wafers are meant to be light-colored and delicate. Keep a close eye on them in the oven and remove them as soon as they are set, but before they start to brown around the edges. Overbaking will make them dry and crisp rather than tender.</p><h3><strong>4. Prepare Filling</strong>&nbsp;</h3><p>Have fun with the red liquid food color! Adding different amounts to separate bowls of frosting allows you to create a beautiful gradient of pinks.</p><h3><strong>5. Assemble Your Cream Wafers</strong></h3><p>Make sure your wafers are completely cool before you attempt to fill them. Spread about 1 teaspoon of your colorful frosting onto the bottom of one wafer and top with a second wafer, gently press them together to create a sandwich cookie. &nbsp;</p>

How to Make Valentine Cream Wafers

<p>For the&nbsp;assembled Valentine Cream Wafers&nbsp;(with the creamy filling), here's how to store them to keep them fresh.</p><h3><strong>Room Temperature</strong></h3><p>Store the filled cookies in an&nbsp;airtight container&nbsp;at room temperature. They should stay fresh and delicious for about&nbsp;3 to 5 days.</p><h3><strong>Refrigeration&nbsp;</strong></h3><p>If you need to store them longer, you can store them in an&nbsp;airtight container in the refrigerator&nbsp;for up to a week. Just be aware that the texture of the wafers might become slightly firmer when chilled. Let them come closer to room temperature before serving for the best taste and texture.</p><h3><strong>Make Ahead</strong></h3><p>Baked, but not filled cookies can be made ahead and stored tightly covered in the freezer for later filling and assembly. Store up to 2 months.</p>
