Chocolate Cheesecake Mousse
This combination of chocolate and cheese is one of the best in my opinion. There were years I didn’t like this combination of flavors but in recent years it has become one of our favorites. Gali loves cheesecakes, I love chocolate desserts and together we get a perfect combination of sweetness balanced by the sourness of the cheese.
First I created the Cheesecake Praliné Brownies, then came the Chocolate Basque Cheesecake and the Chocolate Marble Basque Cheesecake. All of them became a hit in my blog and you loved them.
This time I decided to create for Gali a light and chill dessert that could help her get through the heavy heat wave that we had in Paris. Thankfully our lovely apartment is so cozy and thanks to the lovely garden below it’s less hot inside.
Eggless Chocolate Cheesecake Mousse dessert that can be made in a few minutes. It is possible to prepare the dessert in individual cups or in one serving bowl, I prefer the latter so that everyone can decide how many bites he wants from this decadent creation.

Hello!
Can we change ricotta cheese with something else as that’s not available easily
Paris Chez Sharon
Sorry but no 🙂

Ja, mehr Mascarpone oder Frischkäse, es geht aber auch Quark der muss aber vorher sehr gut abtropfen, am besten über Nacht.
Yes, more mascarpone or cream cheese, but you can also use quark, but it must be drained very well beforehand, preferably overnight.
