In reply to Brenda. Question. Can I use vanilla stevia as a substitute and how should I adjust other ingredients then?

It’s been many years since anyone has posted here but thought I would post anyway. Just made this as dessert for Christmas dinner and it came out just wonderful! Used mint extract instead of peppermint because that is what I had. Very rich!

In reply to Bernadette Wheeler. If you don't have a really good brand of unsweetened cocoa powder that can also be why it might be bitter. My dropper only gets half way full as well. If it's bitter to your taste buds you would need to increase your sweetener. Or try another form of sweetener, like adding in 1/4 teaspoon of pure stevia extract plus the liquid you sued.

I made this using ingredients I had on hand I switched liquid stevia extract with liquid English toffee stevia extract and the peppermint extract with almond extract. It was bitter for me. I wouldn’t think that would make a difference. I did have a little confusion. The instructions said 4 full droppers of the liquid stevia. Whenever I such liquid stevia up into the dropper the most I get is half a dropper so I assumed that was the norm. Maybe I should have used 8 droppers. Not sure but I want to try again.

In reply to Carol. I'm sure to could use whatever sweetener of choice you like just simply by adding a small amount and tasting it to your liking.

I want to make this, but I wonder if there is a substitute for the stevia? Maybe Splenda and just a bit more peppermint extract?

In reply to David Oldenburg. I just posted it two days ago so maybe someone will attest to the fact that it's delicious instead of taking my word for it and for what's it's worth my 3 picky kids and picky hubby loved it!

This looks really good. Has anyone tasted it? I have been eating organic and sometimes gluten and sugar free for about 6 years now. The challenge I find is that most recipes like this look good, but rarely ever taste like the real thing. Has anyone actually made this recipe and can give an “honest” review of how it compares to chocolate mousse?
