I made this mousse for the grand finale of my husband's 50th Birthday Wine and Cheese Party. I got ravings about the mousse and I had guests later tell me they regreted not taking some home that night. So easy. So quick. I followed reviewers' recommendation: I couldn't find dark chocolate pudding mix, but I added chocolate whipped topping rather than regular. It gave the mousse a richer flavor. Will do again and soon! Thanks for this recipe. It was a hit!

This really wasn't chocolate mousse, but i made it because it was so simple. It did the trick though, and i pretty much ate it all by myself. I will be making this again.

For even more rich chocolate flavor, I used chocolate flavored whipped topping and dark chocolate pudding mix. Garnish with some chocolate shavings and it's as good as any restaurant recipe!

This is a pretty good recipe, except 16 ounces of whipped topping is too much - really takes away the chocolate flavor. Try 8 ounces instead.

This recipe delivered on its promise. It was really easy. I used it to fill small chocolate desert cups for a Christmas party and it was a huge hit. (I used real whipped cream instead of the fake stuff because I love whipped cream) I can see what some reviewers are saying regarding the pudding taste but it didn't seem to detract from anyone enjoying it. I would definitely make it again.

This is very light and fluffy. Not as dense and rich as a true mousse would be. Super easy for instant gratification. And no problem using sugar-free and low-fat alternatives.

I made this recipe using sugar free pudding and sugar free whipped topping, you couldn't tell the difference!

Thanks for the easy recipe! I made a 4-layer double chocolate cake for mom's 60th bday and used this mousse for the filling. Then w/chocolate frosting w/extra chocolate chips in it, we were all on a sugar high after even a small piece! Wonderfully easy (and DELISH) recipe!

This recipe can even be made with sugar free pudding to cut down on sugar, which is great for diabetics. I love this recipe for ease and great chocolate taste.

While I am sure this did not taste exactly like "real" chocolate mousse, it was divine and I proudly seved it to guests last night for dinner. I added a little Bailey's and made a raspberry sauce to go with it. I served it in chilled wine glasses and it looked very impressive. Don't let the simple recipe for you, this doesn't have to be just for kids!

It's definitely not chocolate mousse, but it was okay. I didn't like the little flecks of pudding mix that didn't blend.

This is a great "emergency dessert". We had unexpected visitors drop by for supper and I just whipped this up. It was good in chocolate but it was to die for with butterscotch pudding.

The only change I made is that I used chocolate CoolWhip instead of regular. This was delicious and the whole family loved it especially when I added sliced bananas on top! It may not be real "mousse" but it's definitely geared for us busy folk who don't have a lot of time to spend in the kitchen. Thanks Luna!
