TRIPLE CHOCOLATE MOUSSE PARFAIT

Triple Chocolate Mousse Parfait image

This dessert is for all those chocolate lovers out there. It is quite spectacular to see, especially if made in Champagne glasses. The dessert needs chilling time in between each chocolate mousse layer, so plan enough time to make this. Garnish with fresh fruit, chocolate sprinkles or chocolate curls.
