Directions
Chocolate & Olive Oil Mousse, This delicious, easy, and pareve mousse recipe was printed in the New York Times (March 2007) and adapted from Dulce lo Vivas: La Reposteria Sefardi, ( Live Sweet: the Sefardi Bakery ) by Ana Bensadn It can also be baked as a cake (at 350F for about 50 minutes) Mousse must be chilled for 24 hours , I wouldn’t have believed it! I was scared it would taste overwhelmingly like olive oil, but NO Miraculously, it is a subtle undertaste, but way overwhelmed by the rich chocolatiness of this mousse A fabulous way to avoid all that cottonseed oil at Passover and unhealthy margarine desserts year-round!!! ADDED April 2010: This is still an incredible family favourite, for Pesach and year-round We even had it in a pie shell with whipped cream on top once Also works okay to halve it if you don’t need as much
