Admit it. After a long day, sometimes all you want is a little something sweet. So here is an awesome incredibly easy guilt free dessert to ease your sweet cravings and make your belly full!
Greek Yogurt chocolate mousse
1/2 c. plain Greek yogurt
2 oz. dark chocolate
1-2 Tbs. jelly (flavor of choice), honey, or agave nectar
fruit--like raspberries, kiwi, mango, blueberries, etc. (optional)
1 tsp. almonds, walnuts pecans, etc (optional)
Melt chocolate in microwave-safe bowl, using 30 second intervals so chocolate doesn't burn. Stir in yogurt until combined (work quickly so chocolate doesn't solidify at the bottom of bowl). Add in jelly (black raspberry is a great flavor choice but any kind works fine) or honey and stir to combine, adjusting sweetness to your liking. Top with fresh or frozen fruit and nuts if desired and you have an instant chocolate mousse parfait!
If you are allergic to dairy, silken tofu is a great alternative. You can do the same if you don't care for the tang of yogurt--however, it is mostly masked by the sweetness from the chocolate and jelly.
