This recipe made it into our Book #231450. 9/8/08 - Imagine Reese's peanut butter cups turned into a fluffy mousse. YEA!!!! I used chocolate morsels and whipped some fresh heavy cream for the cool whip to lighten the amount of sweetness in these little treats. I had a few white morsel chips so I melted them with a dash of cream and drizzled it over the tops which really complimented the mousse well. This is a fluffy, rich, light, and a very decadent treat that is definitely company worthy. I may do them as mini PB mousse cups using our mini muffin tin next time and brush the white chocolate onto the paper liners before filling them, yum!. :) Thanks Sam, this is a keeper. :)
