- Add in the melted gelatin mixture and melted chocolate, beat on high until airy and thick. Transfer the mousse to a piping bag and pipe into the jars. Refrigerate for 1 hour, or overnight. You can definitely refrigerate it overnight (I do!) but be sure to cover your bowls/jars with plastic wrap otherwise the top of the mousse can dry out.
- Make chocolate peanut butter bark as a decorative topping. Melt 1/2 cup of chocolate candy melts (or chocolate candiquik/almond bark) - once melted pour on a small baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle melted peanut butter and swirl. Add pieces of a reese’s cup and peanut butter chips. Place in the fridge to set.Chocolate candy melts, A few reese’s cups, A few peanut butter chips
