Today I needed to make something quick. Quick like a fox. Only they needed to look like they took some time. This is what I came up with. Raspberry Mousse Brownies.
Sometimes brownies from a box are a good thing.
That is if you top them with a swirl of homemade Raspberry Mousse.
And that's just what I did.
After baking, cooling and cutting the brownies into squares, I placed each brownie in a cupcake wrapper and piped a swirl of Raspberry Mousse on top.
I sprinkled the raspberry mousse with chocolate shavings.
Then I topped them with a conversation heart. Who doesn't love a conversation heart?
Just for you...
Too Cool!

Raspberries are quickly becoming one of my favorite fruits. I can only imagine how amazing it would be with brownies!

ReplyDeleteChocolate and raspberry, you can't go wrong! :)
DeleteLovely! I've made a lot of brownies but never thought to top with a mousse. This raspberry one looks delicious.
ReplyDeleteThank you Paula, it was the first time I topped it with a mousse and I really liked how it turned out!
DeleteYUM! I can never cook brownies correctly. They're always perfect in the middle and hard and over done on the outside. I need to learn to make perfect brownies so I can make these. Your piping is perfect too!
ReplyDeleteSometimes that happens to me too, I would give you advice for baking the perfect brownie, but I haven't found it yet! :) Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteCandy truffles are the delightful snacks that are made of a baking thumbprint cookies center and are protected with white or chocolates. Candy truffles are very popular among chocolate fans, because they overflow the oral cavity area with an memorable flavor.
ReplyDeleteYes, candy truffles are delightful snacks!
