Chocolate Mousse Confetti Cups

This dessert is super easy and super fun for kids. My kids sat and watched in amazement as we made this colorful treat.

Waffle Cups

1 Package of Keebler Waffle Bowls (Comes as a package of 10)
1 cup chocolate chips
1 tsp of vegetable oil
Sprinkles! Lots and lots of Sprinkles!

1. Melt chocolate chips with oil. Put about 2 Tbsp of chocolate in each waffle bowl.

2. Here's where the kids can have fun. . .Take a paint brush and paint the inside of the waffle bowl as well as the top edge.

3. Dip edge in sprinkles. Let Chocolate bowls cool in the freezer to harden.




Chocolate Mousse

2 cups heavy whipping cream
1 small package of Jello instant chocolate pudding
2 Tbsp of cocoa
2 Tbsp of powdered sugar

1. In a larger mixer combine all ingredients on low speed until combined. Once combined, gradually turn to high speed and whip until very thick. (You can turn this into an adult dessert by adding a shot or two of a flavored liqueur.)

2. Fill chocolate cups with mousse. Garnish with Chocolate covered berries and marshmallows.
