Y’all know how I love to skinny recipes down, keeping all the flavor but with less calories.  It’s a little competition I have with myself sometimes…  all in good clean fun, of course!

Choffy Mousse is my version of  the decadent chocolate mousse that your sweet tooth is used to enjoying but a little skinnier!

(the skinny part can be our little secret)

Instead of lots and lots of heavy whipping cream this recipe replaces part of it with fat free greek yogurt- yep, your waistline will thank me later 🙂
