Quick Choc Mousse Filling for Cakes or Swiss Roll!

Recipe #303258 | 15 min | 15 min prep | add private note

This is a filling I really needed in a hurry one day, long ago, and created it on the spot with available ingredients. It's an easy and quick substitute for more involved recipes. Just one caveat: use a high-quality chocolate. The first ingredient on the list of choc ingredients should be "cocoa butter", not sugar!!! Sometimes it's worth spending on an imported slab!

1 1/4 cup (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 1 ounce butter
  • 7 ounces chocolate, broken up (use the best quality)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla (or use 3 teaspoons citrus liqueur like Grand Marnier or Cointreau or Van der Hum)
  • 4 ounces cream cheese

Directions

  1. 1
    Over low heat (or use double boiler or microwave) melt the butter, and add the chopped chocolate. Let it melt gently.
  2. 2
    When completely melted, add vanilla or liqueur.
  3. 3
    Cool slightly, then whisk in the cream cheese until the mixture is smooth.
  4. 4
    Cool, then chill until thick enough to use as a filling for a cake or a Swiss roll.
