A Quick and Easy Valentine's Day Treat



I hate when Valentine's Day falls on weekdays.  We don't celebrate much, but I always like making a nice dinner and a little treat.  When it falls on a weekday I don't have much time after work.  This dessert is a nice little solution to that problem.

There's really not much to it.  You can use your favourite brownie recipe or boxed brownie mix.  For the filling, I used Dr. Oekter's Chocolate Mousse Supreme.


Bake the brownies in a 9 x 13 pan, this way they are not too thick.

Make the mousse while brownies are baking and let it sit in the fridge for 15-20 minutes.

Let the brownies cool completely.  When cool, use a heart shaped cookie cutter (at least three inches in size) and cut out an even number of hearts.







Scoop the mousse into a piping bag and pipe mousse onto half of the hearts.  Top with remaining half of the hearts.  Decorate with remaining mousse and/or icing sugar.
