Almond Cloud – an HMR Decision Free dream of a mousse!

In Phase 2 class this week, we were encouraged to amp up the volume of meal replacements. The Phase One mousse came up a few times as an example – and with summer heat hitting us in California, I decided this would be my homework.

Unlike many of the mousse recipes, this one does not use pudding. Leaving it in the food processor allows it to set-up quite nicely (although it won’t be quite the same as the recipes that utilize the instant pudding).

Almond Cloud Mousse

• 10 ice cubes
• 1 HMR 800 Vanilla Shake
• 2 oz Torani Sugar Free Brown Sugar & Cinnamon Syrup
• 2 oz cold water
• 1/4 to 1/3 tsp almond extract (depending how strong you want the almond)
• A couple dashes of ground cinnamon

Put ice in food processor and blend until ice is ground fine. Remove lid and use a spatula to scrape the ice off the sides.

Replace lid and start processor again. Slowly pour in liquids and add shake and spice. Let processor run 8 to 10 minutes until mousse becomes thick and has doubled in size.

Eat immediately and enjoy mega volume for minimal calories!

Have you tried one of the mousse recipes on HMR’s recipe search or do you have one from a class? I’d love to try your favorite – so please share a link to the recipe or the recipe in the comments!
