  1. I've lost a special occasion dessert recipe of yours, that I'd to
    make soon for an event. My route to google is down.

    It was like a chocolate, possibly whipped cream, mousse, that had
    orange flavoring. I think it used orange zest rather than extract.

  2. Didn't find one posted by Debbie but did find this. Uses Cool Whip but
    whipped cream would be better.

    Chocolate Orange Bavarian

    8 Servings

    This dessert can also be poured into a mold pan and unmolded when ready to
    serve. If you do that then save orange peel to sprinkle on top after
    unmolded, or add all the peel to the mixture.

    2 ounce unsweetened chocolate
    1 tablespoon butter
    2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
    3/4 cup granulated sugar substitute, or 18 packets
    2 cups cool whip free
    2 unflavored gelatin
    1 cup boiling water
    2 ice cubes
    2 tablespoons grated orange peel

    Heat water to boiling. Meanwhile put the chocolate into the microwave
    topped by the butter, and melt for approximately 2 1/2 minutes or until
    melted. Watch carefully so it does not burn or cease up. Place the gelatin
    in a small bowl add water. Stir until all the gelatin has melted. Add half
    the orange peel and stir for a minute or so. Stir in the 2 ice cubes until
    they are melted. Mixture should be tepid by now. Meanwhile after chocolate
    and butter melt stir until they are well blended. While chocolate and
    gelatin are cooling place cool whip in a large bowl. Add in the sweetener
    and cocoa powder and whip lightly with mixer. While continuing to beat,
    slowly pour in the chocolate mixture. Then slowly pour in the gelatin
    mixture while continuing to beat. When all is well blended pour into a
    pretty bowl and top with remaining orange peel. Chill for at least 3 hours.

    I'm guessing this one then. :-)

    Chocolate Orange Bavarian (serves 6-8)

    2 oz unsweetened chocolate
    1 tbsp butter
    2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
    1/2 tsp orange extract
    sweetener equivalent to 3/4 cups of sugar (sweetener of choice)
    2 cups whipping cream
    2 pkgs Knox unflavored gelatin
    1 cup boiling water
    2 ice cubes
    2 tbsp grated orange peel

    I set up electric kettle on to boil, and while it boils I pop the
    chocolate into the microwave topped by the butter, and melt it down.
    Usually takes about 2 1/2 minutes in my microwave. Place the gelatin
    in a small bowl. When water boils add one cup of water to the
    gelatin and stir until all the gelatin has melted. Then add half the
    orange peel (I don't want to 'waste' an orange so I so use bottled
    orange peel from the spices section at the supermarket) and stir
    for another minute or so. Then stir in the 2 ice cubes until they
    are melted. Mixture should be tepid by now.

    Meanwhile after chocolate and butter melt stir until they are well
    blended. While chocolate and gelatin are cooling on your counter get
    out a large bowl, add the whipping cream and begin to beat until peaks
    start to form. Then add in the sweetener, orange extract and cocoa
    powder. Then, while continuing to beat, slowly pour in the chocolate
    mixture. You may need to stop beating for a minute to scrape the last
    of the chocolate from the bowl. Then slowly pour in the gelatin
    mixture while continuing to beat.

    When all is well blended pour into a pretty bowl (I use a cut
    crystal bowl) and top with remaining orange peel. Chill for at least
    3 hours. Can also be poured into a mold pan and unmolded when ready
    to serve. If you do that then save orange peel to sprinkle on top
    after unmolded, or add all the peel to the mixture.

    This is nice and light, and was a hit at Easter dinner.

    Wow, this recipe is **identical** to mine (which I developed myself) except
    for the substitution of Cool Whip for real whipped cream. Looks like someone
    "stole" my recipe and then just subbed Cool Whip for the whipped cream. I'll
    keep teh real whipped cream, thanks.

    It is yours. 🙂

    I looked up the thread this eve. It was Claudia (remember Claudia?) in
    ASD. She was converting your recipe to low fat for someone's request.

    Oh yes, I remember Claudia, and I guess the Cool Whip would be better for
    LF. I have not been on asd for years now, but every now and then I do think
    of Claudia and wonder how she is doing.
