These Easter Eggs filled with chocolate mousse will be the center of attention at any table. They're nice to look at and delicious! I love this recipe because it's not very sweet. But you can also adjust to taste the amount of sugar used in the recipe. For this recipe, I used large chocolate eggs. You can, however, make smaller portions using small chocolate eggs, which are perfect for the Easter celebration at your child's school. Happy Easter!

Ingredients

1 cup whipping cream
4 tablespoons powdered sugar
15 oz ricotta cheese
4 tablespoons cocoa powder
2 tablespoons sugar
2-3 large chocolate Easter eggs, cut in half

1

Whip the cream in a blender at high speed until it forms smooth peaks. Add the powdered sugar and continue whipping until the cream forms hard peaks, approximately 3-4 minutes. Set aside.
2

In another bowl, whip the ricotta cheese until smooth. Add the cocoa powder and sugar; mix well.
3

Carefully fold the Ricotta mix into the whipped cream.
4

Spoon the mousse into each large chocolate egg. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
5

Decorate with small Easter eggs if you like, and serve immediately.
