Friday Dessert: Chocolate Mousse | March 9, 2012

Friday Dessert: Chocolate Mousse

We used to think that desserts are prohibited if we want to lose or to keep weight. However, you can make this light and delicious dessert very quickly, and enjoy it without gaining a pound. Use chocolate which contains more than 70% cacao. The Glycemic Index of such chocolate is only 20; which means that your blood sugar level and insulin level will not increase dramatically after consuming that. The recipe does not include bad carbs or saturated fats. Easy to make, delicious and healthy!

Ingredients:

2 teaspoons of instant coffee

11oz. dark chocolate with more than 70% cacao

2 fl oz. Coffee … Read More »

Chronicling Weight Loss Stumbles and Goals
