Suzy made this video, a Healthier Chocolate Mousse, at the start of our “vlog” . We were not using the same logo or the name of Sisters of the Spoon. This was the first video Suzy made live without Sharon. Never mind the blender almost on fire! This recipe is smoking good. Ha ! Ha! Actually it is delicious. Suzy still uses the blender but does not let it run at a high speed as she did in the video.
The mixer that is another story. After more then 75 years of use, it started smoking. The sisters’ mom had used that mixer since the forties, many a batch of cookies, cakes and meringue have been made with that mixer.
What makes this healthier? Using an avocado for butter, heavy cream and egg yolks along with bittersweet chocolate rather than a sugar laden chocolate.. This recipe has less saturated fats and about 7 times the fiber. Fiber is important for gut bacteria health, it slows the sugar down in your digestive system. Fiber feeds the good bacteria.
Ironic Sharon will soon be flying to Panama City Beach Florida and Suzy will be driving the opposite from the year of this video.
