I found a recipe I'd like to use for valentine's day...I've done some work on it, but I think there might be a way to get it lower still.
Here it is:
Raspberry Mousse Filled Chocolate Heart
Step 1
1/2 pint raspberries
1/4 cup sugar
heat over medium heat until syrup forms. Strain, removing seeds.
Step 2
8 ox. cream cheese
3 TBSP raspberry syrup from step 1
1/4 cup sugar
Whip with electric mixer until well blended.
Step 3
Line a heart-shaped box with plastic wrap and fill with mousse. Chill in freezer until solid. Remove from box, remove plastic wrap and place on cooling rack/grate.
Step 4
3 oz. semisweet chocolate
1/2 cup plus 1 TBSP heavy cream
Place ingredients in a pan on top of a double boiler and melt together stirring until completely smooth. Allow ganache to cool slightly. Poor over heart mold. Turn upside down and cover with more ganache.
I've replaced all the sugar with splenda as well as the semisweet chocoloate with insweetened and splenda, but I still have about 39 cards for the whole thing. Anyone see a way to reduce this anymore?
