Rice with apples is probably known to everyone, as it is one of the most popular childhood desserts. Here, the white grains turn into a velvety, decadent cream definitely worth a sweet sin. It’s a great way to use up leftovers from the fridge and avoid wasting food.

After taking it out of the fridge, the cream is quite hard and dense. If you want it to be smooth and mousse-like, take it out earlier and give it some time at room temperature.

Ingredients:

          
  • 250 grams of dark chocolate,
  • 1 cup of cooked rice,
  • 125 millilitres of hot water,
  • 4 tablespoons of cocoa powder.

Preparation method:

Step 1. Place the cooked and cooled rice in a blender. Add the hot water and melted dark chocolate from a water bath or microwave. Blend everything into a uniform mass.

Step 2. Transfer the ready mousse into a mold, bowls, or other containers. Place in the fridge for 2 hours.
