Valentine's Day Chocolate Raspberry Cream Cheese Mousse Recipe

This isn't quite as light as a mousse, but it's creamy and delicious. The cream cheese really adds an element of deliciousness (I'm not a writer) and it's quite tasty. Decadent comes to mind here. It is a very hoity toity of a dessert if you ask me, yet so simple to make.

Tip: How on Earth do you divide something into tablespoons when you simply have a 1 Tablespoon measuring spoon? Use a portion scoop (you know, like a cookie scoop).

Fortunately I have all three - 3 Tablespoons, 2 Tablespoons and 1 Tablespoon.
