KitchenAid Giveaway at WhipperBerry

This post and KitchenAid Mixer GIVEAWAY is brought to you by Eagle Brand™ // I don't know about you, but the holidays just would not be the holidays without some good old holiday sweet treats. Christmas morning lasts but a short hour or so, but… Holiday cooking and baking last the whole month long. Those are the memories that last for generations. I can't tell you what I received as a kid for Christmas when I was eight or nine, but I can tell you about the scrumptious goodies I helped my Mom make those years. I remember the flavors of the season and those flavors are what usher in those holiday memories each year.

Every year my Dad would get a box of chocolate covered cherries.  I loved those gooey treats! I'm sure I drove him nuts constantly asking if I could have one. I just adore cherries and when you add chocolate to the mix… It's a match made in HEAVEN!! 

I have since come up with a tasty dessert to share during the holidays that takes me back to childhood… 

Eagle Brand Chocolate Cherry Mousse Pie-4

If you love cherries and adore chocolate, this dessert is one you should try! Click HERE for the Chocolate Cherry Mousse Pie recipe.

Now, my Mom has always been a bit of the adventurous person in the family. We never stuck to the rules when it came to any kind of cooking or baking. When it came to Christmas, some years she liked to introduce a bit of Latin flair to our holiday table. We would have Soapapillas for New Years and she would make an amazing Flan for Christmas that I have adored forever!!

Eagle Brand Creamy Flan

If you haven't had flan, you are missing out!! It is a creamy egg custard sweetened with Eagle Brand™ Sweetened Condensed Milk and topped with a lovely caramel sauce that is to die for.  Click HERE for my Creamy Flan recipe.

Chocolate Cherry Mousse Pie Recipe

1 · · 2 Comments

This post brought to you by Eagle Brand // As a kid, one of the things I looked forward to every holiday season, was when my Dad would share some of his FAVORITE chocolate covered cherries with me. I would have to say the apple didn't fall to far from the tree when it comes to this favorite confection. I adore cherries and to add chocolate to the mix made them absolutely PERFECT!

Not too long ago, my Mom introduced me to a recipe that I have since fallen in love with. I modified it a bit and came up with this scrumptious Chocolate Covered Cherry Mousse Pie…

Eagle Brand Chocolate Cherry Mousse Pie-4

Ingredients for Chocolate Cherry Mousse Pie

1 14 oz. can of Eagle Brand™ Sweetened Condensed Milk

2 oz. of a unsweetened Hershey chocolate bar

1/2 teaspoon almond extract

1 prepared graham cracker crust

20 oz. maraschino cherries, drained (2 jars)

8 oz. cream cheese, softened

1 cup cold water

3.9 oz. box of vanilla instant pudding

1 cup of whipping cream, whipped OR 3 cups of Cool Whip

Chocolate swirls optional

Directions for Chocolate Cherry Mousse Pie

In a small double boiler over low heat and occasionally stirring, melt the unsweetened chocolate and 1/2 of the Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk. Once the chocolate mixture has melted add a 1/4 teaspoon of almond extract. Pour the chocolate mixture into the bottom of the prepared graham cracker crust.

Next, take one of the 10 oz. bottles of cherries and cut them in all in half and place on top of the chocolate mixture in the crust.

Set the pie aside at this point and start on the mousse. 

Reserve a few cherries to garnish the pie and then chop the remaining cherries and set aside. 

In the mixing bowl of your mixer, whip the cream cheese until light. Gradually whip the water into the cream cheese and remaining Eagle Brand Milk. Add pudding mix, the remaining extract and chopped cherries. Mix well. Gently fold in the whipped cream or Cool Whip. Pour into pie crust and chill for 4 hours or until set. Garnish with whole cherries and chocolate swirls if desired.
