This Reese's Mousse is rich and creamy and gives you a break from the repetitive taste and texture of peanut butter.
This is truly a dessert in terms of nutrition. It shouldn’t be consumed frequently due to the calories and fat; however, roughly 30% of the fat is “good fat” from the peanuts.

Tip – Save over 20% of the calories and fat by replacing the whipped cream with Reddi Whip! Sprinkle cocoa powder on top or melt bittersweet (70% cocoa) chocolate.
