According to the weather channel, the majority of you readers are experiencing some pretty chilly weather
right now. March will hopefully be the last big push of winter weather, but it is still a few weeks yet until spring
officially begins. Cold weather is a good excuse to wrap yourself up in a huge quilt - with or without someone else -
and cozy up to some truly decadent food. No one wants to go out for their chocolate fix in weather like this, so stay
in and make a sinful Triple Chocolate
Mousse Cake with the recipe posted by Belly Timber. The cake is made of
a hazelnut sponge cake, topped with rich chocolate mousse and finished with a coating of ganache. It does take
some time to set up, but one look at the finished product and it is easy to see that this chocolaty perfection
will be worth the wait.

be an occasional snack for children, but with over half the recommended daily amount of calories for an adult in each
serving, it still seems difficult to recommend it. It's easier (and healthier) just to eat a Snickers bar alone.
