Mock Chocolate Mousse
by Jes Mostek
serves: 6
  You'll want to prepare the pudding and mix the cream with the chocolate drink mix powder the night before you want to eat it.

You can use instant pudding with this recipe as well, but it won't be quite as thick. Use the box that makes 4 servings.

Also, you can use chocolate cool whip (an 8 oz. tub) in place of the cream and chocolate powder, but again, it won't be the same.
Ingredients:
  1 (3 oz.) box   Chocolate Cook & Serve Pudding
    milk, as directed on pudding pkg.
  1 c.   whipping cream
  2 T.   chocolate drink mix powder (such as Nesquik)
Directions:
  Prepare cook & serve pudding as directed on package. Pour into a bowl or plastic container to cool in the fridge. Before putting it away to cool, cover it with plastic wrap so that the plastic wrap is touching the pudding over the entire surface; try to remove any air bubbles. This will prevent a "skin" from forming over the top of the pudding.

Combine the chocolate powder (such as Nesquik) and the cream in a small plastic air-tight container. Place in the fridge while the pudding cools.

When the pudding is cool, whip the cream using an electric mixer.

Fold the pudding into the whipped cream. Serve immediately.

Once the cream has been whipped, you'll want to eat it all within the next day (after that, the cream will begin to fall).
